Description

A Japanese Meiji period Ukiyo-e woodblock print triptych, titled ‘Kyoiku Kenpu no Te-narai’ (Education for Wise Women’s Handiwork). Each of the three sheets is printed on paper with multi-colored inks, depicting genre scenes of women engaged in various domestic and educational activities. The leftmost panel includes a landscape in the background. The rightmost panel bears the vertical inscription ‘教育賢婦之手習’ and a signature/publisher’s mark in the lower right corner, with additional text elements visible within the scenes on other panels.


Condition report:

Generally fair to good condition. Colors remain largely vibrant despite some expected age-toning, minor fading, and light creasing consistent with age and previous handling. Verso images confirm bleed-through typical of the printing method. No significant tears, repairs, or major losses observed.
