Ichikawa Ebijūrō II as Horiguchi Manzaemon from the Kabuki Play Eight Views of the Kizu River by Boating Song
Two men in traditional Japanese clothing, with a blue and white kimono and a blue robe, are engaged in a fierce sword fight. The man in front wears a white kimono with blue designs and has a red sash around his waist; he holds a sword in his right hand and appears to be lunging to the right. The man behind him wears a blue robe with a circular emblem and holds a sword above his head with his right hand; his left arm is raised. Both men have dark hair. The background is black at the top and fades to gray at the bottom. There are several Japanese characters written vertically on the left side and two smaller sets of characters at the bottom.
