Kotondo is best known for bijin-ga, but his complete oeuvre includes actor prints and other figure subjects. His small corpus of only 21 designs ensures that all authenticated period impressions carry collector interest and scarcity premiums.
A print from Kotondo's body of work whose specific subject is uncertain — the catalog title referencing a collector or dealer name rather than the artwork's own title. Works by Kotondo passed through significant private collections and the hands of specialist dealers across the twentieth century, and catalog entries sometimes reflect the provenance rather than the artist's original title. The work likely represents one of his bijin-ga or kabuki subjects from the late 1920s through mid-1970s.
