The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:

Some call this Moonlight At Matsushima but it's proper name is I think Futago Island in Matsushima. The writing on the right margins is the prewar date, December 1933. Has the small Watanabe seal bottom right, Hasui's mark is bottom left. Measures 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 inches. In mint condition, NO toning/stains/etc. Like the day it was printed. Tipped to an acid free mat it awaits your frame.
