Comments - Interesting kabuki scene of Ichikawa Danjuro as the nobleman Ashikaga Jiro standing near a doorway as he tugs on the end of a robe. His other hand rests protectively on the shoulder of the beauty kneeling before him, who shyly hides her face behind her sleeve. She wears a gray robe patterned with Genji symbols, while her companion is dressed in an elegant kimono with a design of gourds and leaves. The evening sky is framed by autumn grasses and leaves. A handsomely detailed subject.
