Summary

Description
English: Battle of Toba–Fushimi, The Great Victory of the Government Forces of Mori (Chōshū), Shima (Satsuma), and Yama (Tosa). Nishiki-e, depicting the retreat of shogunate forces in front of the Imperial Army (Kangun). Yodo Castle is shown in the background. (Japanese title: Mori Shima Yama kangun daishōri no zu).
日本語: 鳥羽・伏見の戦い(とば・ふしみのたたかい)、「毛理嶋山官軍大勝利之図」。本合戦浮世絵に描かれているのは、1868年(慶応4年/明治元年)の「鳥羽・伏見の戦い」における官軍(明治新政府軍)の勝利です。表題にある「毛理嶋山」(もうりしまやま)の「毛理」は長州藩(現在の山口県)の毛利氏、「嶋」は薩摩藩(現在の鹿児島県)の島津氏、「山」は土佐藩(現在の高知県)の山内氏を指しています。薩摩藩士の「西郷隆盛」(さいごうたかもり)らは、江戸で狼藉(ろうぜき)を働くなどして混乱を招き、旧幕府側を挑発。これに対し徳川幕府最後の将軍であった「徳川慶喜」(とくがわよしのぶ)は「討薩の表」(とうさつのひょう)を発します。旧幕府軍は、本営の大坂城(現在の大阪城)から京都へ進撃し、薩摩・長州を中心とする新政府軍と衝突。装備で勝る新政府軍が旧幕府軍を圧倒し、淀(よど:京都市伏見区西南部)まで退却させました。制作者の「照皇斎国広」(しょうこうさいくにひろ)は、明治時代の浮世絵師ですが、知られている作品は、1868年(明治元年)に表した大判6枚続の本合戦浮世絵1点のみとなっています。
