Go Rin No Sho

Go Rin No Sho, that means " the book of five rings", written by

legendary samuray Miyamoto Musashi describing his fantastic two-

swords fighting techniques, demonstrates the unique skills of this

superb warrior of middle-age era in Japan.

VERY NICE! I love the colors and I have several things from Japan (we just moved from there) that remind me of this. This is one of your best works. I wish I could give you 7's (stupid system) ~ micki

well Micki, this is a homage to my supreme idol (after Jesus) Miyamoto Musashi. I've read his biography [two volumes-circa 1.000 pages each] at least 4 times now. I also own the film about his life (3 dvd set, edited by amazon.com) which I've seen dozens of times. Go Rin No Sho or The Book Of Five Elements is the heritage he wrote, describing his fighting techniques, to his disciple Teruo Nobuyuki some weeks before his death. Anyway, thank you Micki. Peace. Sergio.

Caro Sergio,

Alem do gosto pela fotografia e Friburgo compartilhamos a admiracao pelos samurais. Tambem li o livro, muito bom.

tudo legal? Friburgo e o lugar...Camarada vc viu o filme [feito em 1956 e a cores, nao e "colorizado"] baseado no livro e c/ Toshiro Mifune no papel de Musashi? Dura quase 5 horas e so tem na amazon.com - sao 3 dvds: parte 1, 2 e 3! E absolutamente essencial, recomendo. Leia també­ o livro escrito por ele (Go Rin No Sho - edicao em portugues: O Livro dos Cinco Aneis) alguns meses antes de morrer, descrevendo suas tecnicas de luta para o discipulo que o seguiu ate sua morte! Um abraco. Sergio
