Uesugi Kenshin Samurai Armor
Uesugi Kenshin, also known as “The Dragon of Echigo”, was a Japanese daimyo renowned for his skills in combat and business. He gained his reputation after several battles against the legendary Takeda Shingen, also known as the “Tiger of the Kai”. The two daimyos may have received these names because of their interest in Sun Tzu’s work “The Art of War” and their admiration for Chinese culture.
