This play is based on the Nôh play 'Rashômon', in which a man ,Watanabe no Tsuna, meets a woman at the Ichijô Modori bridge. He recognizes the woman as a demon and when she tries to kidnap him he cuts off her arm, after which she flies away. This is the upper leaf of a vertical diptych. With one poem.
