Description
Hino Sukemoto was exiled to Sado Island and executed seven years later. His son Hino Kumawakamaru, returned to Sado and revenged his father's death, killing his father's enemy with the same sword used to execute his father. In this print the boy Kumawakamaru escapes from Sado Island after his father's death with the aid of the priest Daizenbo. The boy, looking back at their pursuers, is carried on Daizenbo's back as they dash along the shore and the priest calls back a departing boat.
