Entitled: "Mushataira no tomomori." Shows the ghost of Taira no Tomomori crashing through waves to avenge the Taira naval defeat by the Minamoto forces during the Genpei War. Taira no Atsumori (1169-1184) was a samurai famous for his early death in single combat. At the Battle of Ichi-no-Tani, Atsumori engaged Kumagai Naozane, an ally of the Minamoto, and was killed. Kumagai had a son the same age as Atsumori. Kumagai's great remorse as told in the tale, coupled with his taking of priestly vows, caused this otherwise unremarkable event to become well known for its tragedy. Woodcut by Yoshitoshi Taiso, circa 1880s.
