陸海軍人高名鑑 騎兵軍曹 川崎伊勢雄

This Ukiyo-e shows a strong man from the back, standing in the center. His muscles show power and strength. In the dark night, there is red glowing lights far away, which creates a feeling of danger. His pose and eyes show tension, like he is ready for fight. The reflection on the water of gradation is very beautiful. The image seems to show a scene from war. I think this Ukiyo-e shows emotion and strength.
