Description: This print by Hiroshige is from the Soto to Uchi Sugata Hakkei (外と内姿八景, "Eight Views of Figures Inside and Outside") series, in which each print features a beautiful woman and some scenery. Considering that her toes are clinging to the edge of the hearth, it seems the courtesan is very cold despite being as close as possible to the coals.

This particular print is a post-war reproduction by Yuyudo.

This paricular print is from a set "Beauties by Three Great Artists" which consists of 20 reproduction prints by three major beauties designers of the Edo period: Hiroshige, Kunisada, and Eisen, published by Yuyudo in 1975.

There are slight foxing spots at the lower part of this print.
