Specialist note
This print is from Hokusai's early period during the late 18th century when he worked under the pen-name Shunro ('Spring Brilliance') and is amongst a very small number of hashira-e produced by him. One other impression of this rare print is illustrated in Jacob Pins, The Japanese Pillar Print: Hashira-e, (London, 1982), cat. no.1006, p. 350.
