	Notes (this edition)?:	The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies: "Lake Chuzenji, Nikko" -1931 Print size 15.50" x 10.25" (Full Oban) EARLY EDITION ORIGINAL Pristine gallery condition. Full margins; never laid down; no tears, folds, creases or foxing. We do note some ever-so-slight scuffing at the upper edge of the top margin, which in no way detracts from the image in any way. Good bleedthrough to verso. It should be noted that this stunning print has been titled and pencil signed in English by the hand of master HASUI himself. This stunning print also carries master HASUI's signature in Japanese, as well as his sui and the Watanabe 6mm seal.
