Description: This print is from a set of Ukiyo-e reproductions published by Kyoeido probably around the 1960s. You can see the scale in Dave's YouTube video featuring Tokaido prints from the same set. The image may look familiar but it's different in terms of size - it's in double ōban format, approximately 55 x 40 cm.

It would be very difficult to undertake the production of this kind of reproduction these days - the staggering number of blocks and impressions required make such projects no longer commercially practical.

There is a pinhole at the top left corner.
