So maybe after browsing, you decide you'll buy this print by Kitagawa Utamaro ( he lived between 1754 and 1806) of some girls paddling in the sea with some sacred rocks behind them, and the rising sun on the horizon. (Original in the British Museum Collection)
You pay for your purchase with a banknote (maybe) like this illustration of one held in the British Museum collection:
This was a Hansatu, issued by the Amagaski clan. Its value equalled a silver monme (sorry cant tell you the equivalent value)
Fts .
Thanke for sharing the beautiful art and infprmation!
