Beschreibung:

Colour woodblock, pillar print (‘hashira-e’). A depiction of Hayano Kanpei sheltering beneath a pine tree in the rain; he is out hunting with a shotgun over one shoulder and a sedge hat in one hand. Along the highway in the distance is the evil ronin Ono Sadakuro following Kanpei’s elderly father-in-law Yoichibei whom he will soon rob and murder. This is a scene from Act V, ‘Teppo watashi’ and ‘Futatsu dama’, of the kabuki play 'Kanadehon Chushingura'.
