: I just recently purchased a triptic print by Ginko. The only other information I have on it is that it is from 1881, and the title of it is "women viewing cherry blossoms." It is very beautiful and the colors are very vibrant. I searched the internet and could only find a couple of items relating to this artist. I would very much appreciate it if anyone can give me more information on this artist and work.
: Thank You,

Richard Lane, in "Images from the Floating World: The Japanese Print", has the following short entry on Ginko: "Ginko (fl. ca 1874-97): ukiyo-e print artist, correspondent and illustrator during the Sino-Japanese war."
