Comments - This is a fine Meiji era reprint of the kabuki actor Matsumoto Kyozou, who was an onnagata (a male actor specializing in female roles). The United States Library of Congress has this reprint subject in its collection, and estimates the printing date to be between 1868 and 1900..

Woodblock reprints - In the 20th century, artists and publishers collaborated to recreate famous woodblock prints for interested Japanese collectors and Westerners looking for rare designs. New blocks were made, and the prints were painstakingly printed by artisan printers in the same method as the 19th century originals - one block for each color. Woodblock reprints were an opportunity to collect and enjoy a famous design at a small fraction of the price of an original. They still are today.
