Description:
Print shows the characters of Yamauba, an old woman who lives in the mountains, and Mitanoshi, who appears to be an old priest or monk, in a shosagoto dance routine with a rabbit and a deer competing in a feat of strength by standing on their fore-paws with the trunk of a tree across the back of their necks.
