In this surimono the actor Ichikawa Danjuro VII is depicted standing defiantly, sword in hand, in the role of Usui no Sadamitsu in the play Yama mata yama hana no yamagatsu which was performed at the Ichimura Theatre in 11th month of 1823.
The poem reads
Ozora ni habakari wa nashi de misuji hiku kasumi otoko zo hitori me ni tatsu
Without a bit of fear toward the heavens above, this bold man appears through three bands of haze standing on top of the world.1
