The Second Nakajima Mihoemon in the Role of Sadaijin Jihei
The image depicts a man in a dynamic pose, dressed in a traditional Japanese garment. The man has a long black and gray beard and hair. His mouth is open, showing his teeth. He wears an orange headband and a white robe with orange and yellow designs, including a large circular emblem on the chest. The robe appears to be blowing in the wind, with folds and creases suggesting movement. He holds a sword in his right hand. The background features a beige color with small black dots along the left edge and a few clouds. The overall style of the image is traditional Japanese art, specifically ukiyo-e woodblock printing.
