This exquisite diptych by Utagawa Kunisada, a prominent figure in 19th-century ukiyo-e art, captures a scene from the kabuki play 'Azuma Kudari Gojūsan Tsugi'. Measuring 19 x 13 1/2 inches, it features two separate panels designed to be viewed together, showcasing an uninterrupted scene. Despite exhibiting significant age-related wear, including noticeable toning, fading of colors particularly reds and purples, and multiple pinholes, the main composition remains legible. The artwork, published by Yamamotoya Heikichi circa 1851, is complete and highly sought after by collectors of Japanese woodblock prints.
