Comments - Interesting kabuki scene from the play "Koigoromo Karigane-zome" of Ichikawa Danjuro VIII as the priest Seigen, whose love for Princess Sakura leads to tragedy. Here, he sits on a straw mat looking up with a worried expression, short hair growing atop his no longer shaved head. A dipper rests in a bucket of water at right, and straw mats form temporary walls above. An expressive figure in a nicely detailed setting.
