Japanese woodblock print triptych by Kunisada, also known as Toyokuni III, (1786-1864) titled "Snow" from the series "Copied Pictures of an Edo Purple Eastern Capital" published by Sanoya Kihei between 1849-1850. The print illustrates a scene from Chapter 30 of Ryutei Tanehiko's 19th century novel "An Impostor Murasaki and a Rustic Genji (Inaka Genji)," which is loosely based on the 11th century novel "The Tale of Genji." Depicted is Mitsuuji, Lady Murasaki, and an attendant holding a brazier. The sliding door behind is opened to reveal a winter view. Very good clean overall condition with some fading evident. The panels are not attached. The back has a slightly metallic sheen to it, but the image and baren marks are visible. It is possibly very thinly backed. Each panel measures 14 1/4" x 9 5/8". This image is color illustrated and described on page 246 of "Genji's World in Japanese Woodblock Prints" by Andreas Marks.
