Colour woodblock print, originally part of a triptych, depicting a dramatic coastal scene with kabuki actors in expressive poses before stylised waves. The central figure restrains a woman while attendants react, capturing a moment of theatrical tension characteristic of mid-19th century Edo theatre imagery. Vertical cartouches identify the actors and their roles.
