Subject:Request help reading caligraphy on Japanese drawing

Here's another item. It's appears to be quite old. Can you translate the calligraphy on this piece? Thank you!

Your Japanese woodblock print of a kabuki actor is by Kunisada II and was printed in the first lunar month of 1876.

Cheers,
Stan
