| Impression |
Very Fine. Nicely done "bokashi" shading to upper background; extensive use of gold metallic pigments to futon and wall; extensive "gauffrage" to legs and blue under-lining; "burnishing" to black of kinomo and head-rest; crisp "key-lines," very highly detailed carving. |
| Condition |
Nearly Excellent. Excellent colors. (Tiny repair top margin, very minor wear, few backing remnants.) |

| Comments |
Relaxing under the covers of a thick winter futon, this young couple is seen engaging in foreplay. A wonderful "shunga" print in exceptional condition. |
