Description

This lot comprises two distinct Japanese woodblock print triptychs, each composed of three vertical panels. Executed in the ukiyo-e style, characteristic of the Edo or Meiji period, the prints feature multi-color inks on paper. The upper triptych depicts women in traditional attire on a pleasure boat navigating a waterway. The lower triptych illustrates women engaged in various indoor or garden activities, including a tea ceremony and reading. Visible markings include Japanese characters within vertical text blocks and red seals/cartouches, predominantly in the upper right and lower left corners of the panels.
