Japanese woodblock print depicts Anekawa Daisuke as Ayame-no-mae. A man with black hair styled in an updo wears a traditional kimono with a green base color and pink flowers. The kimono has wide peach-colored sleeves and a peach and green striped pattern. A round emblem on the sleeves features a pink flower within a white and blue circle. He stands beside a tree with green leaves, holding a sword with a long handle at his side. His kimono has a train and appears to be made of a shiny fabric.
