A black and white portrait photograph of a seated man wearing traditional Japanese armour. This includes medal gaunlets and metal shinguards. He wears a helmet secured with a chin strap, leaving his face visible. His right hand holds an asymmetrical bow resting on the ground. His left hand holds a sword, resting across his left leg. His left foot is resting on a rock. The fetching and shafts of several arrows, presumably held in a back quiver, can be seen over his left shoulder. Immediately behind him is a rectangular banner displaying Japanese characters. There is a tree trunk of a mature tree to the right of him and smaller trees behind him. The wall of a wooden building can be seen in background with a row of plants with broad leaves at its base. Original caption (within the photograph): ‘E15 A WARRIOR FULLY ARMOURED’.
