最上義光銅像

A cavalry statue of Yoshimitsu Mogami, who looks at Hasedo and swings a baton. This statue has a high level of Yamagata casting technology. In 1952, it was said that the design office calculated the structure and said "it cannot stand with two hind legs", but Nishimura Kogyo of Copper Town succeeded in establishing it with its own structure calculation. I didn't fall even in the last earthquake. Yamagata is a world-class statue. The horse's posture is a bit unnatural (bitter smile)

I knew the name of Yoshiaki Mogami, but I didn't know that Mogami Yoshiaki was the same person because I read it as Yoshimitsu. I went around sightseeing and saw a lot of Yoshimitsu Mogami, but I thought he was a stranger to the best clan. I was surprised to find out that he was the same person when he came here.

He is the 11th generation owner of the Mogami clan in Dewa Province, and is famous for the 570,000 stones of the Yamagata clan and the first lord who built the heyday of the Mogami clan in the Battle of Sekigahara. Even so, this statue is powerful and cool!

He is very tolerant of his own people and is said to have had little revolt when Yoshimitsu was alive. The area around the bronze statue from the eastern gate is well maintained and Yoshimitsu Yoshiko will feel good.

Ibaraki is a synonym of Yamagata Castle. In connection with the battle of Sekigahara, the Uesugi army led by Yonezawa Castle Naoe and continued led to Yamagata, and a Hasedo battle occurred. At that time, it is derived from the fact that Uesugi, who was set up at Serizawa, at the foot of Tomiyama, located west of the current Yamagata city area, had a hail to hide its position. Yamagata Castle, the brother of Masamune's mother Yoshihime (Shima Iwashita), built at the time of the 11th castle lord, is said to be the prototype of the present castle in the Taiga drama "Don Eye Ryu Masamune" starring Keisuke Watanabe. By the way, Yoshio Harada is the best performer in the "Don Eye Ryo Masamune". By the way, it seems that Yusaku Matsuda was cast at the beginning, but the schedule did not suit, and it seems that there was a process that Yoshio Harada who is the brother of Yusaku Matsuda got a voice. On the east side of the park, near the east gate, there is a brave statue of the best Yoshimitsu. The motif is a heroic figure standing in the Haseido battle.

I went on a solo trip to Michinoku for the first time in late October 2020. I went there without much preparation, so I first learned about the existence of the statue of Mogami Yoshiaki. I saw the statue of Date Masamune in Sendai the day before, and he looked as good as a Sengoku warrior. I was also impressed with the technology that supports the statue with only two thin legs of the horse.

It is said that a horse stands on two legs and stands on a pole (cool bet in equestrian?), But it is one of the statues that tells us that an actual bronze statue is so powerful. Involuntarily see it twice.

The statue of Yoshimitsu Mogami is cool. It can be said that it is a military commander who laid the foundation for Yamagata's prosperity.
