Utagawa Kunisada I (Toyokuni III) (Japanese, 1786-1864):Wood block print. From the series, Mirrors for Collage Pictures in the Modern Style (Imayo oshi-e kagami). Unframed.
Almost from the first day of his activity, and even at the time of his death in 1865, Kunisada was a trendsetter in the art of the Japanese woodblock print. Always at the vanguard of his time, and in tune with the tastes of the public, he continuously developed his style, which was sometimes radically changed, and did not adhere to stylistic constraints set by any of his contemporaries. His productivity was extraordinary. About 14,500 individual designs have been catalogued
14.5 x 10 inches unframed.

Good aged condition, minor foxing and small tears along bottom edge.
