2020 marks the hundredth anniversary of the birth of the great Japanese actor, and his country is dedicating exhibitions, projections and celebrations to him for the whole year. Mifune, together with director Akira Kurosawa, can be justifiably said to embody the golden age of Japanese cinema.
Working on images and on the inspiration provided by his most famous films, helped make this sculpture a concentrated episode of perfection in all details.
By means of elements such as the samurai’s physical posture, detailed research on the kimono and weapons, his hair, and a careful study of facial expression, we have reached a level of excellence that brings this statuette close to the dream of being able to see the great ToshirÅ Mifune in action once again.
