Subject:Old woodblock print on paper
Posted By: Ryan Wed, Aug 19, 2020 IP: 2601:582:4700:e010:8

This is a woodblock print on paper. It is quite large but very fragile on paper that is flaking and falling apart. I’m hoping someone can help as to age, and hopefully to translate the writing. Any help is much appreciated.

Title inscription,
伊勢大々御神樂之圖 
Ise Dai-dai Mi-kagura no Zu
Picture the Great Imperial Kagura Performance in Ise

It looks like a mid-18 c. piece.

With regards,
I.Nagy

I.Nagy, thank you so much for that information and for solving this mystery! I truly appreciate your help, and with your translation was able to track down another copy of the same print. Thanks again!
