Description

A Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock print triptych, likely dating to the Edo period. Comprising three vertical panels, the prints depict a procession scene featuring multiple figures in traditional attire, some holding lanterns or weapons, with one figure mounted on a horse. The scene is set against a dark, atmospheric background with subtle landscape elements. Each panel features vertical Japanese text, and a red seal-like mark is visible on the lower left of the leftmost print.


Condition report:

Overall paper toning and significant discoloration are evident. Pigment fading is present throughout, particularly severe in background areas and as seen in the second view, indicating light and environmental degradation. Apparent foxing or staining is visible. Minor wear and handling marks are present along the edges.
