to body areas; "burnishing" to hair areas; crisp "key-lines,"
highly detailed carving. |

| Comments |
After Utamaro--a large full-figured "shunga" design of the Meiji Era.
Exquisitely printed with much attention to details and printing quality.
Full-sized "shunga" prints are both highly desirable and seldom seen.
Pleasing age-toned. |
