This is an Asian-style painting, most likely Japanese, featuring calligraphy and artwork. On the left side of the painting is vertical Japanese calligraphy, which includes kanji characters and possibly a poem or a specific message, written with ink and brush. The central and right part of the image includes a depiction of a kabuki actor's portrait in a framed picture (likely a woodblock print) placed next to a peony flower. The portrait shows only the actor's face and upper torso, characterized by the stylized makeup and costume indicative of kabuki theater. The actor has a very expressive appearance, with bold lines and strong contrasts, a style common in kabuki portraiture. Below the framed picture, there's a depicted Japanese wooden clapper called hyoshigi, usually used to make noise to gain attention, for example, before announcements. The art style, including the faded colorization and traditional motifs, suggests this piece could be from the Edo period, also known as Tokugawa period, making it a historical artwork.
