A color woodcut depicts a figure with a tall, ridged black headdress and three faces. The central gray face features a red mask-like shape over the eyes and nose, while dark profiles jut from the sides. Six gray, branch-like arms reach across a wood-grained light gray background. Text below reads "BUDDHA ASYURA (D)," "1/100," and "1959," with a square red seal and signature at the lower left.
