Comments - Interesting kabuki scene of a young man strolling at night, looking over his shoulder with a suspicious frown as he takes a toothpick from his mouth. One sleeve of his tie-dyed blue cotton kimono is pushed down at the waist, revealing a black undergarment, the hem tucked up for easier walking. Behind him, people stroll along a path framed by trees in dark silhouette against the night sky. A handsome expressive figure with soft shading in the background and embossing in the red loincloth.
