豊国 · 辻安 · 1 picture

A Japanese woodblock print from the Edo period, drawn by Toyokuni and published by Tsujiya, from an album of actor pictures. It shows four figures seated and standing in an interior with a tray of food and bowls. Designers can take its flat colour areas, bold black outlines and patterned kimono textures, which are typical of ukiyo-e theatre prints.
