Gotei Hiroshige Ukiyo-e Miyuki and Bunjiro Yoshida 80-year-old "Kotobuki" Shikishi
These items have been kept in a frame for decades. I recently noticed they were layered together.
This is a Ukiyo-e print by Gosōtei Hiroshige and a shikishi (colored paper) commemorating the 80th birthday of Bunshō Yoshida.
The shikishi by Bunshō Yoshida, a Bunraku doll puppeteer, and the actor prints and Kamigata-e by Gosōtei Hiroshige are likely items with a story behind them.
As these were purchased from an antique dealer, I surmise they may have been owned by someone close to Mr. Bunshō Yoshida.
Neither item has been appraised, and their authenticity is unknown. Therefore, please only bid if you understand this.
