Description: This print is from a set of reproductions of 25 of Hiroshige's lesser-known prints, given the English title "Rare Publication: Selected Works by Hiroshige" by the publisher, O-Edo Mokuhansha.

An uguisu (Japanese bush warbler) perches on a tsubaki (Japanese camellia) twig in this print by Hiroshige. A poem from the Wakan Roeishu ("Japanese and Chinese Verses for Recitation") appears on the right side. The original print was published around 1842–43 by Wakasaya Yoichi (also known as Jakurindo).

There are a few traces of glue removal on the backside.
