Description: This print is part of the series "Children’s Customs and Manners" (Kodomo Fuzoku) by Miyagawa Shuntei. The series consists of two sets of 24 prints, each illustrating children engaged in various activities—from seasonal and indoor/outdoor play to festive events and scenes of everyday life during the Meiji era.

Shuntei’s designs are distinguished by their detailed figures, featuring pale tones, soft brushwork, and a subtle color palette evoking a nostalgic view of childhood.

This print depicts two young girls playing hide and seek in an urban setting. Both are dressed in colorful, traditional garments. One girl is seen hiding behind what appears to be a stone barrel, while the other is actively searching for her.

This print is backed and pinholes on the top left corner.
