Comments - Interesting double portrait from the kabuki play "Godairiki Koi No Fujime." In the foreground, the geisha Koman grins happily as she throws her hand out to the side. She wears a tie-dyed kimono with a black collar over a red under robe with a tie-dyed collar, her hair pulled back into a smooth bun adorned with a lacquer comb, a floral ornament, a hairpins and ribbons. Behind her, Igami No Gonda grimaces as he carries a covered wooden bucket under his arm, biting his lower lip. He wears a blue and white checked kimono, a dotted towel knotted about his forehead. Nice expressive figures.
