Kashira with a Warrior and Attendant
(Japanese Military Armor)
Two figures are shown: a warrior wearing armor and an attendant with a scroll. The attendant sits in front of the warrior reading the scroll. The warrior's right had is pointing to his left. The subject appears to be an illustration of a warrior narrative. This is part of a set with Walters 51.1004.
