About this work

A Meiji-era color woodblock print shows a uniformed soldier with a pack seated at the bottom of a long inclined board, while two exaggerated figures in blue and red tumble down it. A panel of handwritten Japanese text and a comic figure shouting at the top add to the satirical composition.
