Subject:cartouches in unknown japanese print to read
Posted By: francis minvielle Sun, Jun 08, 2025 IP: 88.161.198.9
This print is attributed to Hokusai and to other less known artist...
Can you help read the small yellow cartouche and the large one, under Kusatsu?
What vegetable could the lady be chopping?

草津
画狂人　北斎画
大津へ三り半六丁
女川の里　
Kusatsu
Gakyōjin Hokusai-ga　
Ōtsu he 3 Ri-han Roku-chō
Mekawa no sato

Kusatsu
Painted by Hokusai,the Man Crazy About Painting
To Ōtsu 3 Ri and half and 6 Chō (ca. 4.5 km)　
Village of Mekawa

The vegetable chopped by the woman is called Shungiku 春菊　"Spring chrysanthemum", it is used in Nabe-ryōri or drizzled with soy sauce and sezame seeds as a side dish.　　

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thank you so much!
I posted another question on the translation of the poem in this print...
