Subject:Translation request for Japanese woodblock print #1
Posted By: Kay Tue, May 11, 2021 IP: 2001:999:3:837c:1009 Would anyone be able to translate the calligraphy and the stamp imprint on the top right and bottom left of this Japanese woodblock print please? |

Posted By: Stan Tue, May 11, 2021 Your print is by Ando Hiroshige and is titled Moon Pine, Ueno (Ueno sannai Tsuki no matsu), from the series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Meisho Edo hyakkei) printed in 1857. |

Posted By: Stan Wed, May 12, 2021 It could be some kind of photo reproduction. I am taking the OP's word that it is a woodblock print. It is hard to tell from this distance. |
