Actor triptychs

1853-1857

These actor triptychs and diptychs were published between the 12^th month of 1853 and the 11^th month of 1857, but I have been unable to associate them with a particular production. Prints published during this period generally bear a single circular censor’s seal reading aratame (改, inspected) and an oval date seal. These seals are usually near the artist’s signature, and sometimes are only found on a single sheet of a multi-sheet composition.
