The Isegen restaurant at Shibaguchi
Artist: Tsukioka YoshitoshiWoodblock Print Name: The Isegen restaurant at Shibaguchi
Series Number: #19
Date: 9/1871
Description: There is some uncertainty over the last character in the restaurant's name, as it is not very clear in this image. While it seems to look most like the character 涼, and it also might be 凉 (a simplified version of that character), that is probably not correct. Another Yoshitoshi series on Tōkyō restaurants has one print which seems to be of the same restaurant (the location, and other characters in the name, are identical), and that one definitely uses the character given here.
