てい女みさほ鏡(収載資料名:国芳豊国画帖)
A Japanese woodblock print from the Utagawa Kuniyoshi school, published in Edo-period Japan and catalogued as part of a collection of picture albums. The image shows a costumed warrior in a dark robe wrestling a pale, muscular opponent on a wooden floor, with a rope or cord wrapped around the figures and two silhouetted attackers with swords on a shoji screen behind. A designer could take the bold contrast of black silhouette against pale ground, the swirling dynamic line of the cord, and the flat patterned textiles.
