Ichikawa Danjūrō II in the Scene "Wait a Moment" (Shibaraku)
The image depicts a Japanese woodblock print of a man in traditional clothing, specifically a kimono, holding a sword. The man has a shaved forehead and a small amount of hair on the top of his head, tied back. He wears a kimono with a red, black, and beige geometric pattern. The kimono is beige with red and black accents. The man holds a sword in his right hand and another in his left hand. The swords have black and white handles and blades. The background of the print features a beige color with a red, black, and beige geometric pattern, matching the kimono. The pattern consists of diamond shapes and zigzag lines. There is Japanese text written vertically on the bottom right side of the print. The text is black. A small rectangular seal or stamp is located below the text. The print has a white border around it. The overall design and style suggest it is a traditional Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print.
