Subject:Need An Antique Japanese Woodblock Print Artist Identified & Other Translations Thanks!

One more Japanese Woodblock needing Help on. I so do wish I could be the one doing the Translating! I run across so many real nice Early Woodblocks and other Chinese / Japanese Art it would sure make it a lot easier and not have to bother you Experts. Thanks Again for your Time and Expertise!

This is a later reproduction of Kitagawa Utamaro's Happy Togetherness for Umegawa and Chûbei (Umegawa Chûbei no kihan), from the series Eight Pledges at Lovers' Meetings (Ômi hakkei). The link below is to an original at the Boston MFA.

Thanks Stan! I figured they Both were not very old and definitely not first Printings. I do really Appreciate the Info. on them! I seriously would not know where to start in identifying any Woodblocks. What would I do without you and I. Nagy! Sincerely, Gary K

Gary,

To get started, use the link below. Give it a cropped (no extraneous crap) image and it will find quite a few Japanese prints for you. After that, I do an image search in Google. If both of those don't work, I have to rely on my knowledge and reference books.

Cheers,
Stan
