Ohara Koson – Rooster and Hen

Original woodblock print. The first edition of this design was published circa 1910. The current print was printed in the Showa period (1926 – 1989).

Image size (excluding margins): 41.3 * 25.8 cm (16.3 * 10.2 in).

The print is in very good state. There are two irregularities in the paper in the sky, to the left of the rooster.

The pictures shown here are from the print itself.
