Japanese Meiji Style Bronze Samurai Sculpture.  A cast bronze samurai sculpture depicting an armored samurai. Attached to stone base with felt foot.

The samurai were a class of elite warriors in feudal Japan, known for their military skill, strict code of honor, and service to nobility. Originating in the Heian period (794-1185), samurai played a central role in Japanese society, often serving as loyal retainers to powerful feudal lords, or daimyo. Their ethos was governed by Bushido, the "way of the warrior," which emphasized values like loyalty, bravery, honor, and discipline. Samurai were skilled in various forms of combat, particularly swordsmanship, and their distinctive armor and katana (sword) became iconic symbols of their status. Over time, the samurai evolved from warriors into influential administrators and scholars, but their role diminished with the Meiji Restoration in the late 19th century, which led to the modernization of Japan and the dissolution of the samurai class. Today, samurai are revered as symbols of Japanese culture, ethics, and martial tradition.
