Although the record files it as a photo print, this is a Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print, the kind of single-sheet image made in Edo-period Japan for a broad urban audience. The date given is 1750, which falls in the middle of the Edo period, when artists and publishers produced images of actors, beauties, and famous places from the "floating world" of the cities. Because the catalog mixes a photographic label with a printed artwork, the date is best read as an approximate guide rather than a precise record of when this sheet was pressed.
