Comments - Handsome kabuki portrait of Ichikawa Danjuro as the great warrior Uesugi Kenshin holding a bamboo pole, staring to the side with a sober expression. He wears a helmet topped with a horned demon with a monk's mantle wrapped over his head and shoulders, and a purple print vest over a fine suit of armor. A bold design, nicely detailed. Includes metallic pigment that has oxidized to a dark tone on the demon.
