"The Actors Ichikawa Danjuro II as Onio Shinzaemon and Ichikawa Masugoro as Soga no Goro in the play "Furiwake-gami Hatsugai Soga" is a woodblock print created by Torii Kiyonobu II in 1735. The print depicts two famous Kabuki actors, Ichikawa Danjuro II and Ichikawa Masugoro, in character as Onio Shinzaemon and Soga no Goro. This style of print, known as ukiyo-e, was popular in Edo-period Japan and often featured scenes from Kabuki plays, depicting the actors in elaborate costumes and makeup. This print is a great example of the skill and artistry of Japanese woodblock printing, showcasing the intricate details of the characters' costumes and the dynamic composition of the scene."
