A hanging scroll depicts Minamoto Tametomo, a man with a light skin tone, seated in ornate armor with green floral patterns and white scales. Facing left, he wears a gold helmet with horns and holds a tall, curved bow. A quiver of arrows rests on his back and two swords are tucked into his belt. Japanese calligraphy appears in the upper right, and the scene occurs on rectangular brown paper.
