"Kōshirō in the role of Mitsuhide" is a woodblock print created by Yamamura Toyonari in 1915. The print depicts a kabuki actor, Kōshirō, in the role of Mitsuhide, a historical figure from the Sengoku period in Japanese history. The actor is depicted in profile, wearing a traditional Japanese robe, with a stern expression on his face. The print's use of bold lines and flat colors is characteristic of Toyonari's style, which draws heavily on the traditions of Japanese woodblock printing. The print captures the dramatic intensity of the kabuki theatre and offers a glimpse into the world of Japanese popular culture in the early 20th century.
