Description
A print identified by Shuntei's own name — likely a signed work or a title page from a series — representing the artist's self-identification within his published output. From 1897, in the most productive period of his career, this print may accompany a series of bijin or children's genre subjects that followed it, serving as artist identification in the manner of the traditional surimono title print or the series cover sheet.
