Beautiful composition in watercolor. A Kabuki actor is in the role of Naojirô, also called Naozamurai ("Faithful Samurai"), in the play "Kumo ni Magou Ueno no Hatsuhana". It is a tragic love story of young Samurai Naojirô. He is escaping from his enemies. Here in a cold, snow falling night, he tries to see his love, a courtesan, for the last time.
Quite poignant development in the real world is that Ichikawa Danjuro XII had passed away unexpectedly on Feb.3, 2013. Countless people enjoyed his brilliant performance on the theater.
