Tobiuo, flying fish ( probably Prognichthys ) and ishimochi, also called guchi or shiroguchi, white croaker ( probably Argyrosomus argenatus ) together with a single lily from the second series of fish published by Yamasho, c. 1840 – 42. The number of late impressions and facsimiles proves that the series was very popular at the time.

Very good early impression with mica. Fine colour. Light album backing and slight centre fold ( as per usual ). Signed Hiroshige ga.
