The Actor Ichikawa Komazō II in the Role of Ono Sadakurō
The image depicts a man with dark hair tied up, wearing a black top with a red sash around his waist and red shorts. He is barefoot and holds two swords, one in each hand, with the blades facing away from him. The man stands on a yellow-brown ground with sparse vegetation. In the background, diagonal white lines suggest rain, and a tree branch with green leaves is visible at the top. The artist's signature appears in black ink on the bottom right. The man faces left, looking downward.
