Description: A Hokusai kacho-ga print of a warbler and roses, from an untitled series known as "Small Flowers". The poem above the bush-warbler, by Shoso Otsuni, reads, "So now’s the season / when roses droop and fall? / Home on a hill." The print is in a vertical chuban format.

A post-war reproduction from the O-Edo Mokuhan-sha Company.

This print has the appearance of ‘aged’ prints - furubi.

There are baren-suji (striations in the tone caused by the printer using a tad too much pressure) on the background of this print.
