Dôke hyakumanben (Comic One Hundred Turns of the Rosary)
Description
At Japanese Buddhist temples, worshippers sometimes prayed by passing a gigantic rosary from hand to hand, a custom that became a metaphor for tiresome repetition. This bizarre triptych satirizes the complicated political situation in Japan in the 1860s. The central octopus has not eight but five tentacles; it represents the five foreign nations that had recently made trade agreements with Japan. The other figures are the many factions within Japan, who cannot agree on how best to deal with the foreigners.
