About the print
The subject comes from the Iga-goe cycle, one of the three great vendetta narratives of the Japanese stage alongside the Soga plays and Chūshingura. It dramatises the real revenge killing of 1634, in which the swordsman Araki Mataemon helped his brother-in-law Watanabe Kazuma run down his father's murderer — the story reaching the stage as Chikamatsu Hanji's Igagoe dōchū sugoroku of 1783, where Araki becomes Karaki Masaemon and the pursuit is laid out, as the title says, like a game of road-sugoroku. Konda Dainaiki is Masaemon's lord, the man who grants him leave from service so that he can join the vendetta — the scene that sets the whole journey in motion.
Kunisada stages the two men in tight half-length against a graded blue ground: Masaemon above, arms spread, a long shafted weapon at his shoulder and his costume in blacks and dull purples; Dainaiki below in a green robe with white crests and a grey dotted formal over-garment, his brows drawn down. It is the compressed, close-cropped kind of actor sheet Kunisada was producing in enormous numbers by 1850 — but this is a good one, with the burnishing in the dark textiles still doing its work.
