Mannen nagajuban with kabuki actors, anonymous, c. 1920 - c. 1940 Canvas Print
Onderkimono (nagajuban) for a man with a decoration on the upper half of the backs of four partially overlapping rectangular images, two of actors in checkered kimono, one with a cloth around the head, two with paper strips with texts; two wide horizontal bands with large and small block motifs. The actor with the headscarf is 'Kirare Yosa' ('Yosa with the cuts'), with two scars from cuts to the chest, the other 'Komori Yasu' ('Yasu the Bat'), after the tattooed bat on his (here not visible) cheek. Both men are partakers in the crime in the kabuki play 'Yo wa nasaki ukina no yokogushi'. The paper strips are probably calling cards of sponsors. On the left back three black family coats of arms (mon), of the deeds Nakamura Shikan, Morita Kanya and Ichikawa Sadanji; on the front of the right sleeve two family coats of arms, of Ichikawa Sadanji and Jitsukawa Ensaburo. Grey crepe silk (chirimen) with stenciled yuzen decoration. Lining of white silk.
