Description:
"Yoshitsune Senbonzakura". Kitsune (Fox) Tadanobu (left: played by Onoe Kikugoro), disguised as human, escapes from the attack by Shizuka (middle: played by Iwai Komurasaki). He came to retrieve the small drum which was made by his parents' skin. Minamoto Yoshitsune (right: Bando Kakitsu) watches the scene. Fox Tadanobu performs one of the most spectacular acrobatic moves in kabuki.
