            Note: This design was posthumously

Ichimura Uzaemon XV  (市村羽左衛門) as
Miuranosuke (三浦之助)
 
Play: Kamakura Sandaiki
(鎌倉三代記)
Performance Place: Kabuki-za, Tokyo
Performance Date: 02/06/21

Note: This posthumous design was
originally issued in a slightly different
color scheme circa September 1918
when Uzaemon XV played this role at
the Yokohama-za.  The print is signed
"Kunimatsu," but that is believed to be
a pseudonym adopted by the publisher
to hide the fact that it recycles Kunisada
III's original design a few months after
Kunisada's death and is not suggestive
that the artist in question was Utagawa
Kunimatsu (歌川國松).
