Artist:  Mishima Go (三島剛, 1924-1988) - A Pioneer of Japanese Gay Erotic Art


This lithograph is part of the authentic original, 1st edition series from 1972 of “Mishima Gō gashū Wakamono” (三島剛画集 若者), (Mishima Go Picture Book of Young Men), showcasing the artist's striking depictions of Japanese youth.  Mishima Go was a trailblazer during the Showa era, renowned for his evocative portrayals of the Japanese male figure.  His work captures the complex emotions of loneliness, melancholy, and strength, resonating deeply with themes of individuality and the minority experience at the advent of Japanese gay culture.

 

Pieces from this 24-print series remain exceptionally scarce and cherished among collectors.  Published in 1972, these works reflect Mishima's ability to balance traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern, raw expressiveness, continuing to captivate audiences worldwide.  His art remains influential to this day, inspiring countless artists devoted to exploring themes of identity, emotion, and the representation of gay culture in art.

 

This piece is in good condition with just a bit of spotting at upper left side.  Please see and judge from photos.

This striking monochrome homoerotic piece by Mishima Go captures the essence of quiet strength and introspection.  The seated male figure is rendered with masterful shading, highlighting every curve and contour of his muscular form.  His intense gaze over the shoulder adds an intimate, yet powerful presence, while the detailed texturing of his body hair and musculature showcases Mishima’s unparalleled skill in portraying the beauty of the male physique.  Signed “Go Mishma,” this rare and evocative piece from the Mishima Go gashū Wakamono series is an exquisite addition for collectors of Japanese erotic art.
