Subject:Role of Seki Sanjuro by kuniyoshi
Posted By: Tom Aspden Sun, Mar 12, 2023 IP: 146.199.136.178 I need a bit of help identifying the role that Seki Sanjuro II is playing in this print (I suspect it is written to the right of his name). |

Posted By: Guy Mon, Mar 13, 2023 IMO, the publisher must be Ôtaya Sakichi (Kinrindô). |

Posted By: Tom Aspden Mon, Mar 13, 2023 Thanks very much Guy, it seems I was close with the publisher but foiled by poor translation, and thank you for the identification, it was suggested that it was an 1830s print, so it's good to see it confirmed! |
