Kozuka with Merchants at a Scenic Overlook
(Japanese Military Armor)
This scene shows people gathering at a scenic overlook. At the right, pine trees partially obscure a bamboo mat. In the foreground, a man's head can be seen near a signpost. Three figures confer in the center. At the left is a porter. Behind him is the sea coast. Boats are docked at the shore and two can be seen out at sea.
