Color woodcut, c. 1800 Signed in the block, Utamaro fude (see photo) Series: Seirō Niwaka Zensei Asobi ( "Popular Entertainment at the Niwaka Festival, Yoshiwara".) (Green Houses) is a poetic term for the pleasure quarters, specifically the Yoshiwara district."Niwaka" refers to amateur theatrical performances and parades held during the Niwaka festival Format: chuban Fresh colors and condition Housed in an 8 ply rag mat with OP3 Acrylic in a rounded corner Hackman 1" metal leaf frame Image size: 9 x 7 inches Frame size: 14-1/4 x 16-7/8 x 3/4" These are names of chapters from the classic 11th-century novel The Tale of Genji (Genji monogatari).
