Comments - Terrific omocha-e or toy print of figures in silhouette against a bright red ground. The designs include a long-necked monster frightening a man, another creature with a bird-like head and a top hat atop a long neck, and at lower left, an umbrella monster and a lantern monster. All the monsters have glowing white eyes. The rest of the figures are people from different walks of life. An unusual and entertaining subject.
