In this image, we see a traditional Japanese woodblock print featuring a historical scene. The image includes one figure seated on the ground, dressed in formal, elaborate clothing, typical of samurai or nobility from the Edo period. The character is adorned with a dark-colored kimono with white and greenish details, and they are wearing a headdress indicative of high social status.
