Original 19th century Japanese Woodblock Print
Sumo Wrestlers

Comments - Interesting print featuring three horizontal scenes of sumo wrestlers. The top image shows two athletes grappling in the ring with a referee behind them and a patron sitting on a cushion at left. The other two designs feature rows of wrestlers wearing ceremonial fringed aprons. A nice subject for a fan of this ancient sport.

Condition - With excellent color and detail as shown. Three horizontal folds. A few small holes, repaired, blends well. Creasing, faint stain along top edge. Please see photos for details. Good overall.
