This woodblock print depicts two Courtesans under a plum tree with blossoms, one climbing a fence to reach the branches, the other leaning on a stone lantern simply observing. A poem is overhead, presented like a valance. Harunobu was the first artist to render full-color prints, making obsolete the two and three-color prints of the past. This print, with superb use of color, dates to circa 1930 when tourism in Japan was flourishing. The print measures 5.5" x 3.75" and is matted in black. The frame measures 8" x 6". P2030 $85.00
