| Notes: | Margins are slightly trimmed but not into the image area. There appears to be no loss of image continuity across the sheet interfaces - something rarely seen in triptych prints because they are often heavily trimmed. Printed on fine washi. It's interesting to note that this print has Chikanobu's birth name "Hashimoto Tadayoshi" written as "artist" in the left sheet. |
