The First Nakamura Nakazo as a Samurai Dressed in Kamishimo
A man dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, possibly a kimono, with a red top featuring a flower emblem on the left sleeve and a long purple and green patterned skirt, holds a sword in his right hand. His hair is styled in a traditional Japanese topknot. He appears to be in a dynamic pose, with his body turned. The background includes a fence, a building, and bare tree branches. A small area of green floor or ground is visible. Kanji characters are written vertically on the bottom right.
