The term "shishi" can refer to a lion or a mythical lion-like creature often seen in traditional East Asian art and culture, which is known to symbolize protection and good luck. In Kuniyoshi's print, the shishi is typically portrayed with dynamic and expressive lines, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing movement and emotion. The creature may be depicted amidst peonies or other floral elements, which are common motifs associated with it, representing both beauty and strength.
