The Fan Store Eijudö
Catalog note / 解説
A signboard reading “Eijudö, Fans and Various Things” hangs above the front of a shop which sells fan paintings and folding fans. If one believes the shop sign, then this is a depiction of the Nishimura-ya Eijudö publishing house that produced these prints. However, it is not clear whether or not this publisher actually had such a sales area. The puppies on the dirt floor are rather cute, and the women are attractive. (Tadashi Kobayashi, “Edo Beauties in Ukiyo-e”, 1994)
