Subject:Japanese Woodbock, need halp to read the stamp, pls.
Posted By: Val Sun, Jul 24, 2016 IP: 24.141.213.15

Hi all,
I've posted this woodblock on this forum some time ago, and I know that artist's name is Ando Hiroshige.

While trying to reframe it, I found another stamp at the back and was hoping that someone can help me read. Thank you in advance.

It's the seal of Adachi - a publishing company founded in the early twentieth century.

So your print is a modern reprint of a classic design.

That's the mark of the publisher Adachi, known for reproducing classic Ukiyo-e prints.
