Onchi captured his friend’s distinctive face in this print, of which he only pulled seven impressions. As the portrait proved very popular, Onchi commissioned his pupil Sekino to print a second run of 50 additional copies. Today, this portrait is considered one of the most important Japanese prints of the 20th century.
