渡辺源治綱, or, The Mail Must Go Through

Edited National Diet Library of Japan ukiyo-e print of a samurai riding a horse in a torrential downpour. (I'm not sure where the yokai comes in but it was in the same series...)

 

From a series of prints (all dealing with yokai one way or another) called: 和漢百物語, or Wakan Hyaku Monogatari.

 

Original caption: 渡辺源治綱

 

Translated (via Google Translate) caption: Watanabe Genji Tsuna
