About the Artwork

Tsukioka Yoshitoshi is widely regarded as the last great master of the ukiyo-e genre. His career spanned the opening of Japan and the beginning of the Meiji Restoration; a period of radical social, political and technological change during which he pushed traditional Japanese woodblock printing to a new level, even as the advent of photography and lithography were rendering it obsolete. "Yoshitoshi's courage, vision and force of character gave ukiyo-e another generation of life, and illuminated it with one last burst of glory," wrote author John Stevenson, reflecting a sentiment that Yoshitoshi himself may have intended in his death poem: "holding back the night / with its increasing brilliance / the summer moon."

The Heavy Basket is one of his series New Forms of Thirty-Six Ghosts. A sequel to his 1865-1866 series One Hundred Ghost Stories of Japan and China, it was published in the final years of his life, its last three designs appearing posthumously. The print depicts an elderly woman being tormented by a gaggle of demons who emerge from a large wicker basket. Having been presented the choice of a small box (which contained gems) and a large box, she has given in to greed and received her just rewards.
