A color woodblock print depicts Arashi Rikan II and Ichikawa Ebijuro II, two men with light skin tones engaged in a sword fight. On our left, Rikan wears a black and white striped robe and lunges with a sword. On our right, Ebijuro, in a white and blue patterned robe, raises a sword overhead. Vertical lines represent rain falling over haystacks and foliage. Japanese calligraphy columns appear near the staring figures.
