The image depicts a man in traditional Japanese clothing. He has short black hair and is wearing a black robe with orange trim over a gray robe. A brown sash cinches at his waist. The man is barefoot and holds a long pole with a banner attached. The banner is gray with white Japanese characters. His right hand grasps the pole near the banner, while his left hand is extended outward, palm up. He stands on a yellow floor, and the wall behind him is beige with a green section at the top featuring a leaf pattern. The artist's signature appears to the right of the man's leg. The image title appears to relate to a person named Ichikawa Komazo.
