A Japanese woodblock print depicts Otani Tomomatsu as Ono no Sadakuro, a man with short, dark hair wearing a black robe with a circular white design on the shoulder. He holds up a round, gold-colored object. A rectangular inset at the top features green plants with white flowers on the left and white Japanese characters on a black background on the right, separated by a thin red border. A red banner with Japanese characters hangs vertically behind the man's head. The background is beige with a darker color behind the man.
