| Notes (1st edition) | ????·???????????????????·???? ????????????? ???????? ??????????????? ????????? ????22×30?????? Notes by Ross: The original "genga" sketches were drawn by Kiyochika not long before his death. Some trail prints were also produced around this time, possibly shortly after his death. The much reduced woodblock print series was finally published in 1929. See my notes here. | ||

| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Saturday, 9 April 2011 I am not an expert in this type of art, so I can not say for sure if this is a block print. The print was found in a World War II veteran's footlocker. The print is of high quality, the lines that can be seen in the scan, is rain. The print is in good condition with the color still vivid and no tears or folds. The print measures 11 1/2" wide x 8 1/2" high. The print is not backed or in a mat. |
