Description
The Countess Kami dances near a large fire. A group of gods are seated nearby watching her dance while the warrior Tajikara-o removes the stone gate to Ama no Iwato cave. The dance was to entice Amaterasu from her heavenly cave so that the sun would shine. A rooster waits in anticipation for her success. From an original 19th century (1880) woodcut, Ama no Iwato (Stone Gate to Amaterasu's Cave), by unknown artist. All Rights Reserved © 2013 padre art
