Beauties in the Yoshiwara

Series; Famous Places in Tokyo Compared (Tokyo meisho kurabe), 1882

Famous Places in Tokyo Compared - Interesting design from Chikanobu's series "Famous Places in Tokyo Compared," which features beauties at different locations throughout the city. Dated Meiji 15 (1882), the series is not well documented, and we have only seen five designs from it. A rarely seen group and a nice choice for a Chikanobu collector.

Artist - Chikanobu (1838 - 1912)

Image Size - 13" x 8 5/8" + margins as shown

Condition - This print with good color and detail as shown. A few repairs, creasing. Please see photos for details.
