Notes:
An extremely early impression (#2/100); with original paper label inscribed and sealed by the publisher S. Watanabe. Publisher's diamond label attached to the reverse. An important and scarce shin-hanga bijin-e image.
The barren marks in the background certainly add another element of design to this highly sought-after work.
