Posted By: norman Sat, May 11, 2024 Dear Stan and Horst, thanks very much. I'm not sure where I got the 'Mukajima' from, but glad to have the correction. Am I correct in assuming that the left and center panel are all women (wasn't sure about the one entering the boat on the left) except for the three shorter servants and the tall gentleman looking very stern? No clue on the tall gentleman? What do the umbrellas' writing signify? Finally, any website recommended to research the three actors Horst identified. I don't generally collect actor prints, I bought this for the snow/women, so I'm still learning. Thanks again. |
