Comments - Interesting kabuki scene of Onikojima Yataro at right raising his sword above his head, threatening to strike Uesugi Kenshin, who grimaces back at him angrily. Yataro wears an elegant coat featuring a dragon and a pleated collar, trimmed with yellow bows, over an embossed white kimono. At left, Wada Kihei glares at the two men with a tight-lipped frown. From left, the actors are Nakamura Shikan, Bando Hikosaburo, and Ichikawa Sadanji. Nice large expressive figures set off by a deep red background.
