Entitled: "A popular hero, Shibaraku"; shows an actor as a samurai making a grand entrance at the "Shibaraku" moment on the kabuki stage. Kamakura Gongoro Kagemasa is the hero of the kabuki play Shibaraku, one of the most widely-recognized of all kabuki roles and one most associated with the form among those with only a cursory knowledge of the form. Kagemasa is represented in the play with bold red and white face makeup, and a massive costume with huge sleeves. Kamakura Gongoro Kagemasa (born 1069) was a samurai descended from the Taira clan, who fought for the Minamoto clan in the Gosannen War of Japan's Heian period.
