Comments - Handsome kabuki portrait of the nobleman Yorikane standing in a garden, wearing a striking black kimono patterned with white and yellow bamboo, bats, and gourds. He looks up with a suspicious frown as he holds a folding fan near his face. A blossoming cherry tree frames the scene above fences made of brushwood and woven strips. Nicely detailed.
