Untitled is a 1796 ink by Utagawa Toyokuni I, a Romanticism work, depicting Actor, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a man in a kimono, walking to the right. He has a sword at his side and is holding a large fan with a floral pattern. The man's kimono is green with a red lining, and he is barefoot. The background of the painting is dark, which makes the man and his kimono stand out. The artist of this painting is Utagawa Toyokuni I.
Toyokuni was a born showman who made sure the energy of Edo’s kabuki stage never faded on paper.
