The Fifth Ichikawa Danjuro as an Old Man with Long Gray Hair
A woodblock print depicts a man with long gray hair wearing a brown robe over a white kimono. The man has a mustache and sideburns. He walks barefoot on a brown floor. The robe covers one shoulder and has a white square on the sleeve. The man holds the robe closed at his chest with one hand. The background shows a wall with a bamboo-like pattern at the top. Below the bamboo pattern, the wall is beige. The floor has a blue and orange half-moon pattern. The artist's signature is on the right. The print's color palette includes shades of brown, beige, blue, orange, and black. The subject appears to be Ichikawa Danjuro.
