Hi,
I need to translate this 17th/18th century Japanese print. I am not very proficient when it come s to kanji.
I think the banner he is holding says 'Kinsatsu', so I believe this may be an actor print (Yakusha-e 役者絵) of the kubuki play Kinsatsu 金札 'The Golden Tablet'. Or maybe just something about goldbank notes????
His uniform(on chest and hands) has a Watanabe clan crest (Mōn),

If anyone had any knowledge on the seals that would be great too.


Thanks so much!!
