Beautiful night scene from the play Kaidan kohada Koheiji, performed at the Kawarazaki in 07/1853. This kabuki tale about ghosts is apparently based on parts of a true story. A fantastic supernatural design with an eerie setting. Bandô Takesaburô I as Anzai Kijirô, Bandô Shûka I as Fujiya musume Oaki, Bandô Hikosaburô IV as Adachi Hidari Kurô.
