Image description

The revenge of the Forty-seven Ronin, also known as the Forty-seven Samurai, the Ako vendetta, or the Genroku Ako incident (Genroku ako jiken) took place in Japan at the start of the 18th century. One noted Japanese scholar described the tale as the country's 'national legend'. It recounts the most famous case involving the samurai code of honor, bushido.
