= These 12 drawings are designs for pillar prints (hashira-e). Six of these designs depict Kokusenya from the kabuki play Kokusenya Kassen (The battles of Koxinga) by Chikamatsu Monzaemon (1653-1725). This is a story loosely based on the historical Ming dynasty general Koxinga/ Zheng Chenggong (1624-1662), who defeated the Dutch in Taiwan. The other drawings include the Chinese warrior Guan Yu, Urashima Tarô as an old man and other famous personifications. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LIII.
