Comments - Interesting kabuki scene of a man eavesdropping outside the door of a house. He scowls angrily as he listens, his brows furrowed. Inside, a commoner in a boldly patterned blue and gray kimono grimaces as he looks over his shoulder, clutching a dotted towel in one hand. He wears a black undergarment and the tattoos on his arms can just be seen at the sleeves. On the floor at lower right, a pipe rests alongside a tobacco set in a wooden container. A handsome design with nice architectural detail in the setting.
