This is a colorized historical image of a sumo wrestler being prepared for a match. The wrestler is a large man with a muscular build, standing with his back to the viewer. He is wearing a traditional mawashi, a loincloth worn by sumo wrestlers, which is tied around his waist. The mawashi is white with a patterned section. To the left of the wrestler is a man wearing a dark robe and a white undershirt. He is looking towards the wrestler with his hands clasped in front of him. The background shows a thatched-roof hut and other figures, some also appearing to be sumo wrestlers, in various states of preparation. The floor is covered with flower petals and cloth. The image has a vintage feel, with the colorization adding a touch of vibrancy to the scene. The overall impression is one of tradition, strength, and cultural significance.
