About This Artwork
Year of the Tiger is a striking woodblock print by Kawanabe Kyosai, created in 1878 during Japan's Meiji period. The composition captures a fierce tiger in dynamic motion, rendered with Kyosai's characteristic bold linework and expressive brushstroke technique. The work exemplifies the artist's mastery of traditional ukiyo-e methods while infusing the subject with raw energy and psychological intensity.
Kawanabe Kyosai (1831,1889) was a prolific painter, printmaker, and caricaturist renowned for his eccentric wit and technical virtuosity. Working within the Japanese woodblock print tradition, Kyosai elevated genre scenes and animal studies into profound explorations of nature and human character, bridging classical ukiyo-e conventions with modern sensibility.
