Comments - Great kabuki portrait of Iwai Hanshiro as the courtesan Agemaki. She wears a striking purple outer kimono patterned with flowers and a rooster with what appear to be three-dimensional tailfeathers. Her hair is arranged in two loops, adorned with combs and many decorative hairpins. The colorful figure is nicely set off by a deep red background. A beautiful design in excellent condition.
