Description: This print is included in a set of 50 prints called "Ukiyo Ekagami," a collection of various artists and genres, which was probably a reproduction in the pre-war period.

As indicated by the title, this print depicts two courtesan beauties and a man enjoying the cool air at Nakazu (a pleasure quarter). We can perceive the part of a paper lantern as well as a sign (right upper corner) above their heads that help us imagine that they are outside.

This print is a little toned overall. Also, there is a trace of glue removal at the right edge of the backside.
