In this print we can see the actor wearing a tattooed shirt under his kimono - since actors didn't have real tattoos this was part of his costume for the role.

He was tied to a horse and paraded in public before being beheaded at the Suzugamori execution grounds. His head was then publicly displayed on a stake. He was buried at Ekō-in located in the Ryōgoku section of Tokyo.
