Tenpō 13 (1842). Publisher: Maruya Jinpachi. A woman leans over a railing, intently watching a dragonfly — a composition that evokes the feeling of autumn. The background is a single pale pink tone, simple in colour and composition, further emphasising the seasonal mood. Though the print bears no title or censor seal, the publisher’s mark of Maruya Jinpachi is present, suggesting it was produced after the Tenpō Reforms, when publisher and censor seals were temporarily abolished.
