Description: One print from the "One Hundred Famous Places and Beauties of Edo" series by Toyokuni. This particular print shows a beauty in "Saruwaka-chou", a district of Tokyo in which three famous kabuki theatres, the Nakamura-za, Ichimura-za, and Morita-za, were originally located.

Beautiful karazuri embossing to the beauty's kimono is a highlight of the print.

There are a few very tiny holes to the print, and some creases and marks. There is also some browning to the print, from age. The margins of the print have been slightly trimmed.
