Samurai Threatening Beauties

Comments - Violent scene of a samurai attacking a woman, threatening her with his sword as he grabs her by her kimono. The beauty at left bares her chest, offering herself as a sacrifice in place of her companion. A comb and hairpins are scattered on the floor, and a makeup chest sits behind the sliding panel at left. We've never come across this design before.
