Comments - Interesting depiction of a sumo wrestler and a beauty in a new play at the Meijiza or Meiji Theater in 1901. The wrestler looks over his shoulder with an angry frown, his brows furrowed. He holds a pipe in one hand and wears a black coat over a brown and yellow plaid kimono. The beauty leans forward with a concerned expression, throwing her hands out before her. Nicely detailed with burnishing on the black coat.
