Am trying to identify a print I was recently given, and would appreciate any help. It's a nice woodblock print, about 10 1/2 x 14 3/4. At a guess, I'd say mid 1900s, but only a guess based on its aging. I had thought much of the information on the right side was clipped off, but the sheet had been folded to fit the frame, so I'll attach a photo of that later. No image match on line. Many thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

Your print is by Itō Takashi (1894-1982) and is titled "Autumn at Chōshi Waterfall" printed in 1950.

Cheers,
Stan

Many thanks, Stan. I noticed there was also information (?) on the right margin, which had been folded back by a previous owner to fit a smaller frame. I've attached a photo of that as well as what I assume is the artist's seal (quite faded), and would appreciate any other information you might be able to translate from that.Again, my sincere thanks.

Script on the right margin,
國立公園十和田湖ノ内　-　From the series of Lake Towada National Park
銚子大瀧之秋　-　Autumn at "Chōshi Ǒtaki" Waterfalls
Publisher's seal,
ワタナベ　-　Watanabe (Shozaburo)

Left margin,
一九五〇年・一月　-　1950　January

With regards,
I.Nagy

Many thanks to you both.
