The Fifth Ichikawa Danjuro as a Man Standing in a Room
The image depicts a diptych print of two people. The man on the left wears a red and white checkered robe with wide sleeves and light pink pants with an ornate border at the bottom; he has a sword at his side. The man has a distinctive hairstyle with a small topknot. The woman on the right wears a pink and brown plaid kimono over a yellow garment; she also wears a hat with a yellow band. Both figures stand in a room with light-colored walls featuring a grid-patterned window on each side. The borders at the top of each panel have a light floral pattern on a grey background. The artwork is attributed to Katsukawa Shunshō and features the Fifth Ichikawa Danjuro.
