Left: "Mars, the Bringer of War" (2003) by Toshiyuki Enoki, cropped to remove the artist's stamp. Right: "Head of a Lady in Medieval Costume" (1900) by Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola, antisemitic painter and pioneer of military camouflage, cropped and reversed.
#feels also worth noting that the source for the first image is a twitter user whose avatar is‚ wait for it‚ a bust of aristotle#and whose profile describes him as an 'Advocate for Liberty' (🧐)#so between guirand de scévola's own stance and some of the dogwhistles there…#i feel pretty comfortable characterizing this as an 'Aesthetics Beloved of the Fash-Adjacent' post#like. i too love classics—i majored in it! but so many of the other ppl who love classics are. like this.#so you start to get wary when you see a white(?) guy in a greek-style helmet‚ lol#(this may not be a white guy bc like. cf many conversations abt japanese chars in manga who westerners read as white)#(but like. i bet that twitter user who digs this piece reads the subject as white‚ you know?)#to be clear‚ i don't know anything abt toshiyuki enoki's politics and am making no claims abt him#but it's just like. the fash-adjacent are SO commonly moths to the flame of these aesthetics#anyway. as ever:#credit is the currency of the internet economy#and you do a disservice to both the original creator and to readers who might like to learn more when you pass around uncredited work#in this case the disservice unfortunately includes: platforming an antisemite without yr readers being aware of what they're engaging with#toshiyuki enoki#lucien victor guirand de scévola#art#antisemitism cw#[shd note: i wasn't initially confident in the enoki identification bc the only source i was finding was that one tweet]#but the artist's mark that's visible there shows up on other works on enoki's insta]#anyway. hitting post before tumblr eats this again…

2 paintings by Toshiyuki Enoki: ~ 'Rabbit', 2020. (Acrylic, oil & silver leaf on canvas) ~ 'Toryumon', 2007. Koi-Carp leaping the Dragon Gate. (Acrylic, ink & gold leaf on canvas) When finished swimming up the waterfall, the carp transforms into a dragon. (From Chinese legend "Toryumon-Densetsu", which is also part of Japanese cultural history.) It's symbolic of strength & the ability to overcome obstacles.
