Catalogue notesA number of sources seem to give 'Kansuke' as the name of this person (when looking using the kanji given here - although the usual kanji for 'Kansuke' are different), and he is a well-known person from that battle, but it's hard to reconcile that reading with the canonical ones for these characters. Perhaps it is a little-known nickname for him?

191(Untitled)(Untitled)Hayase IoriAdachi YasukeAdachi MotoemonTriptych早瀬伊織 安達 弥助 安達元右衛門
Catalogue notesKeyes gives few details about this print, other than to list the publisher - Marujin - but it seems to be this one, published by Maruya Jinpachi. Shown are (L to R) Sawamura Tosshō II as Hayase Iori; Nakamura Shikan IV as Adachi Yasuke; and Ōtani Tomoemon V as Adachi Motoemon. Adachi Motoemon is sometimes read as Adachi Genemon, but the former reading seems to be the usual.

Catalogue notesThe identity of this print is not absolutely certain, as Keyes gives very few details about it, other than naming two of the personages shown in half-length portraits. Since they match, this is probably it. The publisher of this one is Ōmiya Kinkyū (Sawa Kyūjirō). Shown are (from L to R) Ōtani Tomoemon V as Adachi Motoemon, Sawamura Tosshō II as Hayase Iori, and Bandō Hikosaburō V as Tōma Saburōemon.
