Comments - Interesting kabuki portrait of Nakamura Shikan as a commoner on a dark night, leaning forward with a rather evil grin as he holds one sleeve to his chest. He wears a blue and green outer kimono patterned with ropes over a tie-dyed blue under robe, a dotted cloth wrapped about his forehead. Blossoming plum branches in dark silhouette provide an handsome backdrop for the figure. Nicely detailed.
