Comments - Handsome kabuki portrait of a wild-haired warrior gripping a cloth-covered parcel in his hand, extending it behind his back. He stares to the side with a determined frown, his shorter hair forming bushy wings atop his head, with the longer hair pulled into a low ponytail over his back. He wears a white robe with a faint embossed geometric print over a red floral kimono and a suit of armor. His outermost black kimono is pushed down to the waist and detailed with a burnished scroll pattern. At text panel overhead takes the form of a scroll unrolling, and a floral ornament hangs at upper left, with colorful streaming trailing from it. A great expressive figure and a nicely detailed image.
