Print Date: 1914-1915?
Personal Collection
 
Note: This appears to be a character from some version of
Gonin Otoko (白波五人男).  The publisher, Shbata, was an
Osaka publisher, so the play was likely performed in Osaka
or Kyoto.  Indeed, I can find no Tokyo performance with
Nizaemon XI in this role.  The rabbit depicted under
Eishô's signature could indicate that this print was made
during the Year of the Rabbit (1915, or less likely, 1927).

Note: Kichiemon I performed his role in Tokyo numerous times
between 1912 and 1948, and Kikugorô VI performed his role in Tokyo
numerous times between 1909 and 1948, making dating of this print
difficult.  They do not appear to have ever performed on the same
bill together.
