Hi, please can I ask if anyone could help identifying this print and the artist. Many thanks to you in advance.

The artist is Kuniyoshi and your print looks like the center panel of a triptych. When I get access to a computer again, I’ll try to find out more.

Cheers,
Stan

I. Nagy,

Thanks for the assist. I love giving a full answer to the poster's question.

HC,

If you provide a clear picture of the lower left, we can narrow the date of printing down to a period of a few years. Given that there are 2 censer seals, the date of printing is in the 1840s or 1850s.

Cheers,
Stan
