Samurai with a Bundle of Bamboo, 1866

Comments - Interesting portrait of one of the 47ronin carrying a bundle of bamboo over his shoulder through the snow. He looks over his shoulder with an angry frown, a blue cloth wrapped around his face and chin against the cold. He wears a kimono with plaid and checked fabric over a black undergarment and black leggings with patches over the knee. A handsome composition, nicely detailed.
