Image description

Unkoku School In the late 1500s and early 1600s in Japan, scenes of Tartars (Mongols) hunting or playing polo were popular subjects for folding screens. The skillful horsemanship, stamina and physical prowess required by these activities and the competition and spirit of the hunt were all subjects that would have appealed to the samurai who commissioned the paintings. The setting in far-off China also suited their taste for the exotic.
