Taisho period (1910-1925) Japanese
woodblock print by Ito Sozan (1884-?) titled Hana (Flower), from the series
Setsugetsuka no uchi (Snow, Moon and Flower). This design is illustrated at

(2000). It was published by the Watanabe Color Print Co. Although it (and the

Snow and Moon both have them.
This print is in very good condition, with fresh colors. The image measures 14 ¾ by 6 ¼ inches, plus full margins.
