Beschreibung

The inscription above the actors contains the dialogue of this particular scene. A reissue of this same design exists, also published by Kawaguchiya Shōzō, in which the two actors are replaced by Bandō Mitsugorō (Iwafuji) and Nakamura Shikan (Ohatsu). They played the roles some ten years later in the play Sakura-doki onna gyōretsu. In this later edition the faces and names, including those given in the dialogue, are changed. Remarkably, in this later edition Kunisada's signature is replaced by that of his fellow Utagawa school member Kuniyoshi (1798-1861). Kuniyoshi also created a triptych of this play in 1832 for Kawaguchiya's publishing firm Shōeidō.
