The Actor Ōtani Tomoemon in the Role of Ono Sadakurō, from the series Image of Actors on Stage
A man wearing a black robe with a white sash and white shorts stands facing left, with his head turned, looking towards the viewer. He is barefoot. A large straw hat covers the top of his head and back. A sword with a wrapped handle and a long wooden pole are slung over his shoulders. The background is dark with diagonal lines suggesting rain. A short, narrow white rectangle with Japanese characters is on the upper left.
