Original Yoshiiku Woodblock Print from 1864




This is a scene from a story about Ryu Onna (dragon lady). She asked the warrior to slay her foe - a giant centipede. He did and in the illustration she is thanking him for his bravery.
Ukiyo-e is in great condition...no rips or tears. The piece is wrapped in cellophane for protection, which is why the photo is so shiny.
9" x 14" (24cm x 36cm)
$250
