Below you will discover six gorgeous paintings for a selection of Legends of Japan. There are drawings of Yorimasa slaying a monster, Raiko slaying a goblin, and more. They are from the book Myths and Legends: Japan by F. Hadland Davis, which was published around 1915. Unfortunately, the name of the artist is not given. These images are far from perfect due to their age, but I have done the best I can to bring out their beauty. If you like these pictures, please take a look at the galleries for more Japanese Legends and Myths of Japan from the same book. Enjoy!
