Description: The 11th sumo wrestling Yokozuna, Shiranui Kōemon (1825 - 1879) and the 13th Yokozuna, Kimenzan Tanigorō (1826 - 1871). It has the original photo colors. Note: Shiranui's left hand cupped to his chest, which indicates the Unryū ring-entering style, not the one that carries his namesake.
