Subject:Help identifying Japanese print...Shunsho?
Posted By: Jaime Tue, Jan 23, 2018 IP: 2605:e000:1314:4b9:d

Hello:

Can anyone help me identify this print (artist, time period, title, etc.)? I was told it was by Shunsho but am having doubts as the signature doesn't seem to match up. Many thanks and have a wonderful day!

It is a repro (inspired by?) a print by Katsukawa Shuncho. Here is an original at the Boston MFA:
