Legendary Strongman Sakata Kinpira (Kintoki) Drinking Sake
The image depicts a scene with two men. One man sits on the ground, shirtless and wearing a traditional Japanese garment, with a sword beside him. He has a large build and an open mouth, appearing to speak. A thought bubble emanates from his mouth. The other man stands beside him, wearing traditional Japanese clothing and a sword at his side. He holds a tray with a sake cup and bottle. He appears to be bald. The background features a set of stone steps leading down to a body of water, with trees and a building to the right. The artwork uses muted colors and appears to be an aged woodblock print.
