Bloodied Ceiling

The original site of Fushimi Castle holds a dark tale from Japan’s Sengoku period (1467 – 1600). A garrison of samurai warriors loyal to Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543–1616) found themselves outnumbered by rival warlord Ishida Mitsunari (1560–1600) and his army of 40,000 men. They managed to hold out for two weeks until the castle was set on fire. Seeing that all hope was lost, all 380 samurai gathered in the keep and committed ritual suicide on August 1, 1600.

The blood-soaked floorboards on which they died were later recovered, hidden in a temple in Kyoto, and shared among other temples so that prayers could be offered for the souls of the departed warriors. Sixteen eventually came to be used as ceiling panels at Hosen-in Temple. A number of handprints can be seen in the blood that coats the wood. Some sections also bear indications of helmets or armored breastplates. In one place, a human face is faintly discernible, while in another section there appear to be smeared fingerprints.

The defiance of Fushimi Castle gave Ieyasu sufficient time to marshal his forces. Less than two months after the fall of the castle, he defeated his rivals at the decisive Battle of Sekigahara.

血染天頂

這片天頂是戰國時代（1467-1600）發生在伏見城的一段黑暗歷史的見證人。當時，德川家康（1543-1616）麾下的武將們對戰石田三成（1560-1600）率領的四萬大軍陷入劣勢，他們雖然頑強地抵抗了兩周，但最終伏見城被敵軍放火燒毀。竭盡全力的380名武士在天守閣集結，於1600年8月1日集體自盡。

武將們鮮血染紅的地板被回收後藏於京都的一所寺院內，之後分給數家寺院供奉，以祭奠武將們的亡靈。寶泉院的天頂貼有16塊血跡斑斑的地板，上面殘留著清晰可見的手印、盔甲和鎧甲的痕跡，以及依稀可辨的人臉和指紋。

正是得益於武將們在伏見城內的頑強抵抗，才讓德川家康贏得足夠的時間召集軍隊，並在伏見城失陷不到兩個月後的「關原之戰」中告捷。

血染天顶

这片天顶是战国时代（1467-1600）发生在伏见城的一段黑暗历史的见证人。当时，德川家康（1543-1616）麾下的武将们对战石田三成（1560-1600）率领的四万大军陷入劣势，虽然他们顽强地抵抗了两周，但最终伏见城被敌军放火烧毁。竭尽全力的380名武士集结在天守阁，于1600年8月1日集体自尽。

被武将们的鲜血染红的地板被回收后藏于京都的一所寺院内，之后又分给数家寺院供奉，以祭奠武将们的亡灵。宝泉院的天顶贴有16块血迹斑斑的地板，上面残留着清晰可见的手印、盔甲和铠甲的痕迹，以及依稀可辨的人脸和指纹。
