The image depicts a Japanese woodblock print of Ichikawa Monnosuke II standing beside a stone box. The man, Ichikawa Monnosuke II, is wearing a traditional Japanese robe with a patterned design on the sleeves and chest; the robe is primarily beige with brown accents. He has a head covering and is barefoot with his feet positioned slightly apart. In his hands, he holds a sword with a gray scabbard across his body. The background includes a beige wall and what appears to be a stone or concrete floor and wall to the left; the wall has a pattern of small dots. There is Japanese writing on the right side of the print, near the edge. The overall color palette is muted, with shades of beige, brown, and gray dominating the scene.
