Lot: 75 - Antique Japanese Ink on Paper, Ukiyoe of Anti-Christian Manifest
Antique Japanese Ink on Paper, calligraphy from the Shogunate era detailing the persecution of Christians in Japan c. 1750. Christianity in Edo Japan underwent a dramatic shift from rapid growth to total suppression. What began as a thriving faith with over 300,000 converts was outlawed in the early 1600s, driving adherents underground to survive brutal persecution. The Tokugawa Shogunate viewed the exclusive nature of the Christian faith as a threat to their political authority and national unity. This led to the creation of the Kirishitan (the Japanese term for Catholics) and a bloody legacy that defined the era. The shogunate officially banned the propagation of Christianity, ordered the destruction of churches, and forced foreign missionaries to leave. The crackdown escalated over the decades. Thousands of believers were tortured or executed, famously including the 50 foreign and domestic Catholics burned at the stake during the Great Martyrdom of Edo. A peasant uprising comprised largely of persecuted Christians was brutally crushed by government forces. This event solidified Japan's isolationist sakoku policy, permanently severing ties with most of the Western world. The Kakure Kirishitan (Hidden Christians) to avoid extermination, were forced to publicly renounce their faith-often by participating in mandatory Buddhist and Shinto rituals or stepping on copper plaques of Jesus and Mary. In secret, they practiced as Kakure Kirishitan. Measuring 13 inches H x 17.5 W. Some tears to paper, as shown.

Lot: 87 - Bizen Osafune Kamakura Yoshikage Naginata Blade In Shirasaya
The son of the great swordsmith Kagemitsu, Yoshikage was one of the famous swordsmiths of the 14th century. He specialized in naginatas, powerful swords like this one. The shirasaya, which authenticates the blade, is signed by Tanobe Sensei, one of the greatest sword experts in history, with NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon certification. The Yoshikage swordsmiths of the Bizen Osafune school were active during the late Kamakura and early Muromachi periods (1280-1370). Their blades were highly regarded for their distinctive steel patterns (hada) and temper lines (hamon), influenced by the prestigious Soshu school. Due to the age of these blades, authentic examples are prized museum pieces. Many possess preservation (Hozon) or high-level (Tokubetsu Hozon) certificates issued by the NBTHK (Japanese Art Sword Preservation Society). Naginatas, a type of halberd, are ancient weapons that appeared around 1100. They are swords measuring 30 to 60 cm, mounted on shafts that can reach 2.7 meters in length. Warrior monks were specialists in their use, as evidenced by the numerous battles of Benkei, the most famous among them. They were particularly effective at breaking through the charge of horses. With the advent of firearms in 1543, they disappeared from the battlefield, but strangely enough, they became a symbol of the social status of female samurai. The naginata would now be part of a young woman's dowry. Its length compensated for the difference in size, weight, and strength between men and women, allowing them to defend their home when their husbands were at war. Shirasaya measures 27 inches L, blade measures 19.25 inches, cutting edge measures 18.25 inches L. Stand not included in lot.

The quality was so high that experts mistook the prototype for a sword by the great 16th-century master swordsmith, Tadayoshi. All 7,000 workers at the Mantetsu factory, founded in 1906, were required to pay their respects at a Shinto shrine before beginning their work, to imbue the swords with the divine power of the kami.

Lot: 75 - Antique Japanese Ink on Paper, Ukiyoe of Anti-Christian Manifest
Antique Japanese Ink on Paper, calligraphy from the Shogunate era detailing the persecution of Christians in Japan c. 1750. Christianity in Edo Japan underwent a dramatic shift from rapid growth to total suppression. What began as a thriving faith with over 300,000 converts was outlawed in the early 1600s, driving adherents underground to survive brutal persecution. The Tokugawa Shogunate viewed the exclusive nature of the Christian faith as a threat to their political authority and national unity. This led to the creation of the Kirishitan (the Japanese term for Catholics) and a bloody legacy that defined the era. The shogunate officially banned the propagation of Christianity, ordered the destruction of churches, and forced foreign missionaries to leave. The crackdown escalated over the decades. Thousands of believers were tortured or executed, famously including the 50 foreign and domestic Catholics burned at the stake during the Great Martyrdom of Edo. A peasant uprising comprised largely of persecuted Christians was brutally crushed by government forces. This event solidified Japan's isolationist sakoku policy, permanently severing ties with most of the Western world. The Kakure Kirishitan (Hidden Christians) to avoid extermination, were forced to publicly renounce their faith-often by participating in mandatory Buddhist and Shinto rituals or stepping on copper plaques of Jesus and Mary. In secret, they practiced as Kakure Kirishitan. Measuring 13 inches H x 17.5 W. Some tears to paper, as shown.

Lot: 87 - Bizen Osafune Kamakura Yoshikage Naginata Blade In Shirasaya
The son of the great swordsmith Kagemitsu, Yoshikage was one of the famous swordsmiths of the 14th century. He specialized in naginatas, powerful swords like this one. The shirasaya, which authenticates the blade, is signed by Tanobe Sensei, one of the greatest sword experts in history, with NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon certification. The Yoshikage swordsmiths of the Bizen Osafune school were active during the late Kamakura and early Muromachi periods (1280-1370). Their blades were highly regarded for their distinctive steel patterns (hada) and temper lines (hamon), influenced by the prestigious Soshu school. Due to the age of these blades, authentic examples are prized museum pieces. Many possess preservation (Hozon) or high-level (Tokubetsu Hozon) certificates issued by the NBTHK (Japanese Art Sword Preservation Society). Naginatas, a type of halberd, are ancient weapons that appeared around 1100. They are swords measuring 30 to 60 cm, mounted on shafts that can reach 2.7 meters in length. Warrior monks were specialists in their use, as evidenced by the numerous battles of Benkei, the most famous among them. They were particularly effective at breaking through the charge of horses. With the advent of firearms in 1543, they disappeared from the battlefield, but strangely enough, they became a symbol of the social status of female samurai. The naginata would now be part of a young woman's dowry. Its length compensated for the difference in size, weight, and strength between men and women, allowing them to defend their home when their husbands were at war. Shirasaya measures 27 inches L, blade measures 19.25 inches, cutting edge measures 18.25 inches L. Stand not included in lot.

In occupied Manchuria (Manchukuo), a researcher, Dr. Kusaha Kasuharu, developed a revolutionary steelmaking process that made it possible to create swords from the metal of the Dairen Railway Company's tracks. The quality was so high that experts mistook the prototype for a sword by the great 16th-century master swordsmith, Tadayoshi. All 7,000 workers at the Mantetsu factory, founded in 1906, were required to pay their respects at a Shinto shrine before beginning their work, to imbue the swords with the divine power of the kami.
