"Portraits of the Fifth Danjūrō" by Utagawa Kuniyoshi In the kabuki play "Shibaraku," the story unfolds as a villain aims for the imperial throne and captures innocent men and women, preparing for their execution. Just as the scene escalates, the hero, Kamakura Gengorō Kagemasa, makes a dramatic entrance, using his superhuman strength to rescue them. The print features the expressive kumadori makeup depicting anger and exaggerated features of the boat-shaped eboshi hat and hairstyle.
This A3-sized poster beautifully depicts Japanese culture using vibrant colored washi paper. The first theme is "Ukiyo-e."
