The print depicts three Kabuki actors in elaborate costumes, their poses and expressions conveying a sense of dramatic tension. The print is a valuable historical document providing insight into the popular theater of Edo-period Japan, and demonstrates Kiyonaga's signature style with its delicate lines and vibrant colors.
