"red Fuji" Origin?


Recommended Posts

Years ago I purchased a nicely framed repro print of "Red Fuji" (Fine Wind, Clear Morning).  I'd be interested if anyone might be able (without a lot of effort) to identify the maker and period of the print as indicated by the seals below.  Please ignore my shadow cast on the print.  :oops:   TIA for any enlightenment!

The writing in the white box says "富嶽三十六景" (Thirty Six Views of Fugaku/Fuji), as well as the name of this print, which is listed as #2 in the series in the wikipedia entry. The other line (outside the box) is the artist's name.

Sometimes there is a printer's mark or cartouche on the margin of the print that points to a time frame. It would be tough to tell the printer just from looking at the print.
