Remarks
Watanabe wrote in 1921 that was a sold out edition of 50. However prints without square seal have edition of 100 written on verso.
Shinsui wrote that he designed at Watanabe's request and he, the artist, disliked design. Possibly Watanabe wanted another design thematically similar to Goyo's 1915 print.
