These scenes are recorded in the Taiheiki [Chronicle of the Great Peace] (1372) telling of the Nanbokucho Senso [Wars of the Southern and Northern Courts] (1334-1396) following attacks on the samurai government in 1333 by the forces of the Emperor Godaigo (1288 -1339) in order to restore Imperial rule in place of the Bakufu. Kusunoki Masashige and Masatsura were the supporters of the Southern Imperial Court and fought to gain power for the Emperor. After a number of changes of fortune, the Shogun’s Northern Court under the leadership of Ashikaga Takauji eventually drove the Emperor Godaigo into exile at Yoshino to establish a government by the samurai class with a cadet branch Emperor seated in the North of Kyoto. The situation persisted through the 14th century and up to 1868, when Imperial rule was restored.
