"The Actors Segawa Kikunojo III as Koito, Sawamura Sojuro III as the monk Sainenbo, and Ichikawa Monnosuke II as the monk Renseibo, in the shosa 'Mata Saku Hana Museume Dojoji'" is a 1783 woodblock print by Torii Kiyonaga, depicting the famous kabuki actors in a scene from the play "Mata Saku Hana Museume Dojoji." The colorful print, capturing the dynamic energy of the performance, is a testament to Kiyonaga's mastery of depicting the world of Japanese theater. He utilized the ukiyo-e style, capturing the fleeting beauty and lively atmosphere of Edo-period Japan. This artwork highlights the visual culture and theater of 18th century Japan.
