Created in the 19th century, this work is part of a larger series that visually narrates the Chūshingura, a legendary and historical account of the forty-seven rōnin, a group of samurai who avenged the death of their master, Asano Naganori, in the early 18th century. The tale has been a popular theme in Japanese art, literature, and theater, embodying themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and honor.

The print is characterized by its vibrant use of color, meticulous composition, and the dynamic portrayal of figures, all hallmarks of Kunisada's style. As a part of the broader Ukiyo-e tradition, it reflects the cultural and artistic milieu of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), where the flourishing of popular entertainment and the arts provided a rich context for Kunisada's work.
