A Japanese woodblock print depicts a man in a black robe with a white undergarment, barefoot and bare-chested underneath, with a tattoo on his right bicep. He holds a sword in both hands, with the blade facing down and to the right. The man has a distinctive hairstyle with a curved shape on top of his head. The print features a gray background with diagonal black lines, resembling rain. A decorative black border surrounds the image, adorned with gold accents including seashells and floral patterns. The border's top section is arched. Japanese characters are written vertically on the right side of the print.
