Description

A Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock print triptych on paper, characteristic of the late Edo or early Meiji period (19th century). The composition depicts a procession of figures, including samurai, women with a child, and a seated figure in a palanquin, set against a background featuring a large red temple or shrine. Visible markings include vertical Japanese text and a rectangular cartouche in the upper right of the rightmost panel, along with two red seals bearing Japanese characters in the lower left of the leftmost panel.


Condition report:

Generally good color retention with some minor fading. Visible vertical creases or folds are present across the joins and within the sheets. Scattered minor discoloration or foxing is evident. Some edge wear is present, consistent with the age of the print.
