AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A single sheet from 1891 (Meiji 24) issue of the color woodblock print collection Tsu no Nishiki. It depicts a procession of people with horses in a humorous manner using light lines and pale colors. The prominent vermilion hues of the large hats, distinctive costumes, and horse tack catch the eye, and the wide margins accentuate the movement of the figures. In the lower left, there is a seal impression and a red seal reading “Jou Shou Ou.” The author’s name is not confirmed.
The same volume, Tsu no Nishiki, is also housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The catalogue number is RP-P-2005-531. This item is a plate from the same volume and is not a direct museum possession.
Dimensions are approximately 24 × 32 cm. The object does not include the volume itself, its cover, or colophon; it is presented as a single sheet. The year 1891 refers to the publication year of the volume; the actual year of the print’s impression is not confirmed.
There is a central vertical crease, with aging discoloration, slight staining, rubbing, several white scratches on the image, and edge wear. Please refer to the front and back photos for condition. No frame is included.
