Printing method: Woodblock print. School of Japanese Art. Circa 1800, perhaps earlier (we are not experts). Paper laid onto stiff card (old). Mother outside with a young child at her feet wiggling fingers and making a silly face at the baby she holds in her arms. Very playful and appealing scene. Also shows fencing, pond, tree trunk, and distant mountains. At top is a composition in Japanese, likely a poem. Very good antique condition without notable damage. Normal fading of colors, normal age spots to corners, minor occasional toning. None of this detracts from the charming image. A scarce and wondrous piece.
