Subject:An early series by Toyokuni
Posted By: jean-gabriel Fri, Apr 17, 2026 IP: 90.70.45.6
Hello, here an early (I guess) woodblock of an Onagata by Toyokuni. The format is hosoban and i guess that it belongs to a series, but I do not find any information about it on the web. All information is wellcome (date, name of the actor, name of the piece, name of the series, links to image or site).
Thank you in advances
best regards
jg

Readings,

こしもとおかる　 Koshimoto O-Karu
瀬川路之助　 Segawa Michinosuke

Segawa Michinosuke in Role of Koshimoto O-Karu
(Kanadehon Chūshingura)

For technical reasons alternative kanas are represented in their modern forms.

Regards,
I.Nagy
