Description

A Japanese woodblock print triptych, executed in polychrome on paper, dating to the Meiji period (late 19th century). The prints depict a scene featuring four figures, primarily women dressed in elaborate Western-style attire, within a formal garden setting with European architectural elements and prominent flowering plants, notably chrysanthemums. Japanese text is visible in vertical columns on the right panel and within a small cartouche on the bottom left of the left panel.


Condition report:

The prints exhibit general age-related toning and some fading of the colors, with the verso revealing further paper discoloration and some bleed-through. The prints appear to be in otherwise stable condition without significant tears or losses.
