Ichikawa Danjūrō II in the Role of Soga Gorō from the Play "Yanone"
The image depicts a Japanese woodblock print of a man in traditional armor, with a serious expression on his face. The man has dark hair and wears a traditional Japanese armor with a design of orange and yellow flowers on a beige background. He holds a long spear with a spearhead in his right hand, and his left hand grips the shaft. A green floor and wooden platform are visible beneath him. The background features a wall with a row of arrows and Japanese writing in black ink. A gray color palette with numbers is on the right side. The man sits on a chair with a curved back. He wears a helmet-like headpiece. A woven basket with a rectangular object is on the floor in front of him.
