Notes:	A gorgeous bijin-ga scene of courtesans playing in a plum garden, by Nobukazu - one of the masters of bijin triptych prints. This print is fortunately in its original untrimmed condition. There appears to be no loss of image continuity across the sheet interfaces - something rarely seen in triptych prints. Printed on fine washi. See my example of this print here.
