Condition: A couple of repaired wormholes, lower left corner repaired, some thinning in the upper corners, not affecting the print. Colors faded, consistent with original prints from Utamaro. Margins still present. Very good impression and overall condition.

Notes: Very rare print, and in pretty good overall condition, despite the lower corner repaired. The margins are still here, and these are the original colors.

Pictures: Pictures are taken outdoor, in the shade, to reflect true colors, without any enhancements of any kind. The last picture is taken indoor, with a light behind the print, to reveal the exact paper grain, holes if any, or other possible flaws.
