Can you tell me what the text on top of the print is about?
Thanks

The series title in the cartouche reads 'Kaiko yashinai gusa - daini' (かゐこやしなひ草 第二 - No. 2, from the series 'Silkworm cultivation'), published in chûban format around 1772.

From a series of twelve sheets jointly designed by Shunshô (nrs. 1, 3, 6, 8, 11, 12) and Shigemasa (nrs. 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10).

Guy.

Thank you Guy, but I was wondering about the text on top of the print.
On another matter,I can't post messages on the Uiyo-e site anymore. Do you have the same problem?
Take care,
Francis
