This colorful print describes a battle in Korea that took place early in the Sino-Japanese War, in July 1894. The account of the battle, written in the decorative cartouche at the top center, ends with the nationalistic slogan, "Long live the Great Japanese Empire." The artist Kunisada III was trained in traditional styles of ukiyo-e print design, which continued to flourish with new subject-matter during the Meiji era.
