Untitled is a 2 ink by Torii Kiyoshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Actor, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows a single figure dressed in bold red and black armor. The person wears a helmet, carries a sword, and has a round shield with a red circle. Their outfit has detailed patterns, and they stand on a wooden platform. Japanese writing runs along the sides and top of the image. The figure looks like a warrior from a play, not a real soldier. The style is simple but full of energy, with sharp lines and strong colors. Look up actor next to see how these prints often depicted performers.
