Catalog note / 解説

The 50th "Yokozuna" (Grand Champion sumo wrestler), Sada-no-yama Shinmatsu. He was a good rival to the legendary Yokozuna, Taiho and Kashiwado who were active at his time during 1960s. After the retirement, he became the master of Dewa-no-umi sumo school. He is a director of Japan Sumo Association today. 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.
