The front of this shirt is printed with the oshiguma of Ichikawa Danjuro XIII, Hakuen, a KABUKI actor himself.
Kumadori is a unique KABUKI makeup technique. It also has the role of visually conveying the character of the role to the audience through the colors and types of makeup. Kumadori is also said to represent the ridges of muscles and blood vessels. Oshiguma is a copy of the kumadori applied by the actor by pressing it against paper or cloth.
