You’re awesome! The Major festivals, why not. The four seasons was nothing more than a hopeful guess on my part (seeing as if I ever want to get all of the prints from the series it best if it weren’t a large series).
Andrew, Hans, any thoughts? I found two series by Kunisada done in Koka 4-kaei 5 (1847-1852). There is a close resemblance and date between these prints and the series by Kunichika. I posted them at http://www.edoukiyoe.com/FESTIVALS
I didn’t want to clutter up this message board, sorry.
P.S. We will be in Tokyo for the first week in April. I’ll be sure to check out the Sharaku exhibition. If anyone has any leads as to where I could find these prints please write me at: edoukiyoe.com@gmail.com
