From the series "Setsugekka" (The Poet's Friends, Snow, Moon and Flowers). Bando Hirosaburo and Jitsukawa Ensaburo at night are hostile to each other. Setsugekka ("Snow, Moon, Flowers"), a frequently encountered theme in classical and modern Japanese art and literature, was a perennially popular subject in ukiyo-e prints and paintings. Traditionally, designs representing the changing seasons are presented in scenes with snow, moon and flowers. This print is an example of Mitate-e, "look and compare pictures," the characters and plays are related to one of these classical themes.
