Play:  Genpei Nunobiki no Taki (源平布引瀧)
Performance Place: ?
Performance Date: ?
Print Date: ?
Artist: Natori Shunsen (名取春仙)
Medium: Hand-colored keyblock print (版画源画)?

Note: It is unclear if if this is Gonjûrô II or III.  I
have not found a post-War performance with
either in the role of Saitô Sanemori, although it
was a favorite role of Gonjûrô II before the War.
Although purporting to be hanga genga in the
2002 and 1991 Shunsen catalogs, it appears
to be a finished painting and I have not found
a hand-colored keyblock print for this design.
