Hello George,
Thank you for your appraisal inquiry with Mearto. The item presented appears to be woodblock after Kitagawa Utamaro (喜多川歌麿, Japanese, 1753 – 1806) from the series titled "Ten Classes of Women’s Physiognomy" (Fujo ninsō juppen). The impression presented appears to be a reproduction, dating to the early 20th century. The estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of this work
and other comparable reprinted woodblocks from the same series. The estimate is contingent on a full condition report. Please note asking or dealer prices may vary. Thank you and please take care.
