This one's still my favorite. It's so evocative and really highlights the parallels between the Japanese interest in the "suffering saint" and the motif of sacrifice for Christ in Christianity.

His art is all about life and death and the cycles thereof, and I suppose he sees the duality of that. Christianity's all about duality, so it's a fairly logical destination. Christianity and Catholicism especially are all about death, which gives him a lot of macabre imagery to draw from. It also just looks cool as fuck, so there's that.

It is an another side of the same picture.
I think the right side of this picture is about war beginning, and the left side is about war ending.
The woman in middle of picture is the japanized Virgin Mary.

>left side is about war ending
The women on the left, and even the amount of corpses on both sides, tell me otherwise.

Amakusa is a Japanese Christian hero and martyr who led the Shimabara Rebellion against the Shogunate, this work was published in Divertimento for a Martyr.

Also, yes, I had no doubt that was Mary.

Good to know the Japanese have always drawn 10/10 qt traps.

Is it a cultural thing? Have the Japanese always had a thing for effeminate looking men fuckboys?

Do angels even have gender?

>>994228
I don't think so. And even then the 'males' are described as beautiful.
