Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Original - Kishū kumano iwatake tori ("Iwatake mushroom gathering at Kumano in Kishū") from Hiroshige II's Shokoku meisho hyakkei ("100 Famous Views of Japan" or "100 Famous Views of the Provinces")
Not for voting - the unrestored original. The publisher's stamp on the left is actually incomplete - it cuts off with the left edge of the paper - and also unbalances the design a bit - so I cropped it out of the final version, though an uncropped version is also uploaded if anyone wants to play with it.
Reason
A very high quality Ukiyo-e print, historically, sociologically, gastronomically, and artistically interesting.
