A triptych print depicting a man in a black military uniform with a red stripe down the side of his pants and a white hat. The man holds a long rifle, with the butt on the ground.

There are red streaks and splashes across the image. To the left, there is an area with intense orange flames. The artwork has a Japanese aesthetic and text.
