This image is a traditional Japanese woodblock print, which represents a scene from probably a kabuki play, given the dramatic poses and traditional attire of the characters. On the left side, there is a male figure who appears to be in distress or in the process of being overpowered. He is dressed in a white kimono with a pattern, featuring a blue obi (belt). On the right side, there is a notably more colorful and menacing figure with a red face, suggesting that this character might be an oni (demon) or an antagonist with supernatural characteristics, holding a weapon (likely a tessen, an iron fan used as a weapon) aloft. The oni-like character is dressed in elaborate traditional clothing with patterned fabrics and is exhibiting a forceful, dominant stance over the other character.

Background of the image is plain, focusing all the attention on the characters and their interaction.
