I have just purchased this woodblock. I have been able to identify it as
Transformation of Kikujiro 1765A woman picking chrysanthemums along the banks of a stream. From an original 1765 Japanese woodcut, Yatsushi kikujido, by Suzuki Harunobu
https://fineartamerica.com/featured/transformation-of-kikujiro-1765-padre-art.html

also accompanying the art is a stamp on the back of the woodblock Picture 2 (what does this say?) and another sheet with some text, picture 3 (related? and what does it say?.

is it possible to translate and identify age of this woodblock? Many Thanks.
