Antique Japanese woodblock print by Utagawa Kunisada (Toyokuni III), rare snow scene, late Edo

Japanese theatre woodblock print by Utagawa Kunisada (Utagawa Toyokuni III) of the Utagawa school.

Exterior snow scenes with multiple figures occur far less frequently in Kunisada’s work than his well-known single-actor portraits, which makes this sheet an uncommon example within late Edo kabuki prints.

Date: late Edo, approximately 1845–1855.
Format: ōban.

Condition: antique condition with natural signs of age, creases, edge losses and characteristic surface changes; colors and linework remain legible.

Safe and tracked shipping from Latvia (Riga Gallery of Japanese Art CloudyYokomido).
