Note: Fukuzuke V first played the role of Hanako in this
play at the Kabuki-za in December 1920.  He also played
Hanako in Tokyo in productions of Kyôganoko Musume
Dôjôji (京鹿子娘道成寺) at the Kabuki-za in April 1916
and at the Tokyo Minami-za in December 1923.  I cannot
entirely rule out the possibility that this print reflects
Fukusuke V's December 1923 performance.
