About This Print
A posthumous printing of this small monochrome work, printed by Yoneda Minoru, likely under the auspices of the artist's family.1 It is likely that the original block, carved by Onchi, was used for this print. The print is undated and the artist's catalogue raisonné (see below) does not provide a title or date.
