Description:

While Minamoto Raiko and his retainers were on a hunting trip on Mt. Ashigara, they found a wild boy playing with monkeys and bears. The boy, Kaidomaru (later known as Sakata Kintoki), became one of the famed four retainers of Raiko. Here, the red kid (the red color indicates his extraordinary vigor) is wrestling with one of Raiko's men while his adopted mother, Yamauba is washing clothes.
