Fine impression of the first state. Fine colour and condition.
A print titled 'Shadows of the Cherry Tree' by Komura Settai. His work is influenced by Suzuki Harunobu in its depiction of fragile, delicate beauties. This is probably the first edition, without the break in the shoji screen and the Takamizawa seal au verso. Another edition is on a larger sheet of paper but with flaws in the block. Signed Settai ga.
Illustrated in the Female Image, Plate 213.
