Kiyari-ondo lion dance (Shishi kiyari-ondo)
Katsukawa Shunzan
Colour woodblock print, 'Kiyari-ondo lion dance' (Shishi kiyari-ondo) from 'Flourishing entertainments of the green houses' Niwaka festival' (Seirō niwaka zensei asobi) by Katsukawa Shunzan, published by Nishimuraya Yohachi in Edo (modern Tokyo), Japan, between 1793 and 1801. Right sheet from diptych, ōban format, nishiki-e print. A smaller, chūban, format of the diptych was seemingly produced by the same artist and publisher; an impression of the left sheet of this diptych is preserved in the collections of the MFA Boston (49.1279).
