"Perhaps someone else can find a better one?"
I looked through the Asano/Clark Utamaro catalog (the best work I know of on him), but no luck. I did find a very similar print (#50, "Fishing at Iwaya, Enoshima") - it even has a boy with a crab! I didn't see it in the Hillier book on Utamaro either.
Sigh, a catalog raisonne of Utamaro would be huge: I find that more often than not, when I look in that Asano/Clark catalog for an Utamaro print, it's not in there. Although I often find something _very similar - as here.
