The print shows the map of Kyōto.
The signature "Mikumo" exactly matches with the signature by Inagaki Nenjiro (稲垣稔次郎) on his prints published from Mikumo Mokuhansha (美雲木版社)

Inagaki Nenjiro 1902-1963 established his name as dye-artist. From 1958 professor at the Kyoto Municipal Fine Arts College. He designed only a few woodblock prints in the 1950-60s which were published by Mikumo Mokuhansha in Kyōto.

With regards,
I.Nagy

Esteemed I. Nagy
Thank you for the identification, I was not able to find a photo of this print online to compare and evaluate the condition of the print.
Best regards
