When we think of women in Japanese woodblock prints, we often picture elegant geisha or courtesans in stunning kimonos. But ukiyo-e also tells the stories of fierce and powerful women—like warriors Tomoe Gozen and Hangaku Gozen, who fought beside samurai, or Matsumoto Ai, a female chiropractor who used judo to fight off attackers.
That brings us to today’s topic: Okane, a legendary strongwoman from Omi Province. Eight hundred years ago, she made history with an incredible feat of strength—stopping a runaway horse with just her wooden geta. Let’s explore her story through woodblock prints by Yoshitoshi, Kuniyoshi, Kunisada, and other ukiyo-e artists.
