肖像 Shōzō (Portraits Of Samurai And Actors)

[Baka Gaijin]

Here from the National Diet Library Archive in Tokyo, Volume 2 of 肖像  Shōzō (Portraits of Samurai and Actors)

 

(Volume 1 is as yet eluding me)

 

Printed in Fukuro Toji format in Meiji 24 (1891), many of the woodblock portraits are dated in the print to Edo period.

 

Collated by  野村 Nomura & 文紹 著  Bunshin ? (This may be an art name).
