The Second Yamashita Kinsaku in the Role of Onna Kusunoki
A Japanese woodblock print depicts a man dressed in traditional clothing. He wears a black hat with a wide brim turned upwards at the back, and a long, beige robe with a floral design on the right side and a circular emblem on the left. Underneath, he has a black and yellow garment. The man is shown from the waist up, leaning slightly to his right. He holds a sword with a red and white scabbard and a long, thin object, possibly a flute or a weapon, protruding from his hat. The background features beige tones with a darker area at the bottom and a wavy line on the left. Japanese characters are written vertically on the right side of the print.
