About the Book

The first monograph in English on the stunning series of 74 prints illustrating figures from the Suikoden by Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797-1861), one of the outstanding Japanese woodblock-print masters of the 19th century. The Suikoden (commonly known in English as The Water Margin) is the Japanese adaptation of the 14th century Chinese vernacular novel, the "Shuizu zhuan", which recounts the exploits of a group of rebels on Mount Liang under the leadership of the brave and righteous Song Jiang. "Of Brigands and Bravery" reproduces the 74 known designs of the series, the 108 heroes of the Suikoden (Ts zoku Suikode n g ketsu hyakuhachinin no hitori) in full colour; each is accompanied by an explanatory text. The publication also offers supplementary information on topics relating specifically to the series such as tattooing.

Review :
'The most thorough and user-friendly reference available on Suikoden illustration. Scholars, collectors and museum professionals with interest in Kuniyoshi will find this work invaluable. The nonspecialist will also find much to like about this volume. The marvelous illustrations and Klompmakers's lively descriptions of each print make for a truly pleasurable reading and viewing experience.' Allen Hockley in The Journal of Asian Studies A handsome and invaluable book. It will prove indispensable to all who have felt the strong and mysterious attraction of Kuniyoshi's Suikoden prints - now they can get the full story! - and will be prized by lovers of Japanese and Chinese art and culture in general. B.W. Robinson in Arts of Asia
