Utagawa Sadamasu

Cleveland Museum of Art

A man with shoulder-length hair and a black robe with blue trim is crouched with his legs wide apart. He has a sword on his back and another in his right hand. His mouth is open, showing blood on his lips. He appears to be standing on a dirt or stone floor. There are clouds behind him and a tree branch with leaves in the top left. A vertical orange banner with Japanese text is on the right. The background is gray and brown.
