In this announcement for a play, the actor Nakamura Senya portrays a woman walking under an open umbrella who has turned to look at an old plum tree in blossom. Kiyomasu's style captures the vibrancy of his master's line, but it is equally attentive to the restrained elegance of the Kaigetsudo masters. His graceful subject is ornamented by the decorative color patterning in the robe and vibrantly striated umbrella, which suggests a great awareness of the role of color in the overall composition.
