Dear Jari,
the print is a diptych belonging to the series 'Kanadehon Chushingura' produced in 9/1859 by Ebiya Rinnosuke. Here the third act of the play is depicted which has been performed at the Ichimura theatre. The actors (from left) are Sawamura Tossho II and Ichikawa Kodanji IV as Enya Hangan and Takano Moronao. Carver seal is 'hori ko Masa'.
