Posted By: I.Nagy Thu, Oct 29, 2020
Title cartouche,
北國五色墨 - Hokkoku Goshiki-zumi - Five Shadows of the Northern Quarter ( Name of series)
てっぽう - Teppō - Rifle (Low class prostitute)
Signature,
哥麿筆 - Utamaro-hitsu - Brush of Utamaro
Marking of original publisher,
山一の ? - Yamaichi no ? - I can't identify it
Marking of reprint publisher (Left lower fringe),
内田版 - Uchida-han - Uchida version
Uchida publishing was founded in 1919 specializing in ukiyo-e reprints.
The original was published; 1794-1795
Kitagawa Utamaro 1753-1801
I think your reprint is not really old.
With regards,
I.Nagy
