Subject:Woodblock Print Identification
Posted By: Dennis A Tue, Nov 29, 2016 IP: 66.205.146.140

I don't know that much about woodblock prints and found several that I liked at an estate sale and the price seemed fair so I purchased them. Of the three this is my favorite - I think the red faced man is a buddhist deity and the other men are making an offering but I could be wrong. Any help in identifying the artist and timeframe would be great. i have searched online for signatures, stamps, etc. and have not found anything

I took a quick look, but didn't find the artist. If you could blow up the signature in the lower left, it will help.

Cheers,
Stan
