| The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
You are viewing a Japanese woodblock print that was brought to America from Japan in the 1940's. There is Japanese writing down the side and a stamp on the left lower and right corners. In pencil at the bottom reads: "Matsushime Hasui Kaware" as best we can tell. There is foxing on the paper around the edges.
