The artist is Utagawa Kunitora (acitve early 19th c.). This print is 'Mii no bansho' (Evening bell at Mii Temple) from the series 'Omi hakkei' (Eight views of lake Biwa) - published by Yamadaya Shobei ca. 1820.
Not a common series by an uncommon ukiyo-e artist and therefore a valuable item if original and in good condition.

Guy.
