They were especially admired by samurai for their forward flight and were incorporated into the designs of saddles, stirrups, quivers, and the front crests of helmets. Dragonflies are also associated with autumn, representing change and the beauty of nature's cycles. In poetry, particularly haiku, they often signify fleeting moments of beauty, reflecting the transient nature of life.Auction comparison:Compare a closely related suit of armor with matching dragonfly emblems and a sujibachi kabuto by Myochin Munekata, dated 1854, at Zacke, Fine Japanese Art, 6 December 2024, Vienna, lot 143 (sold for EUR 23,400).
