Description
A group of seated figures in green and gray robes gather in a circle on a veranda, watching two performers on a stage above them; one performer stretches an arm downward while the other sits behind, and a small round object rests among the seated group. The scene is rendered in muted greens, grays, and beige with red accent seals, framed by a decorative border at top containing cartouche text. Kawanabe Kyosai, woodblock print, from the series One Hundred Pictures by Kyosai (Kyosai hyakuzu).
