Bamboo
shields protect a couple in a lonesome land. Prince Genji (the
Japanese Don Juan) and Lady Tasogare warm each other’s bodies. The
closeness was too exotic for the sensors and a second publication was
prohibited. It drove up the price of the first edition. I
notice, a man and a woman, who support each other in hard times.
Yoshitoshi pictures the loneliness of the lovers exquisitely.
