Hello, this is another woodblock print I purchased at the same sale as the other 2 I just posted about also. I am not sure who it is but I do know the colors are good and it’s a nice image. I think that it’s Mt. Fugi in the background. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance for the help!

Title cartouche,
富嶽三十六景　-　Fugaku Sanjurokkei -
甲州　伊沢　曉　-　Kōshu Isawa Akatsuki
Dawn at Isawa in Kai Province from the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji
(No. 43, 7th additional woodcut, cca. 1833)
Signature,
前北斎為一筆　-　Saki no Hokusai Iitsu-hitsu

With regards,
I.Nagy

I.Nagy, Thank you so much for your help!

This is a repro of "Dawn at Isawa in Kai Province" (Kôshû Isawa no akatsuki), from Katsushika Hokusai's famous series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku sanjûrokkei). This series has been reproduced more than 1000 times. Here is an original at the Boston MFA:
