Catalog note / 解説
Kita-no-umi(born 1953) became the youngest grand champion (21 years old 2 months)in 1974. His 670 wins as Yokozuna (grand champion) was the best in the sumo official record. After some 80 years of absence, the Japan Sumo Association commissioned the making of traditional nishiki-e style woodblock printing to publisher Kyoto Hanga-in, artist Daimon, carver Kishima and printer Ito in 1985. These new Sumo Nishiki-e are sold in Ryogoku Kokugi-kan in Tokyo.
