The print number 46 is from Yōshū Chikanobu (1838 - 1912) series Snow, Moon, Flowers published between 1884 - 1886 as a series of 50 prints. This particular scene is a parody of the Tale of Genji as told in False Murasaki, a much later novel. Mitsu-uji  has taken his lady friend Tasogare to an old temple for an evening of romance. Her mother dresses as a demon to scare them off, not approving of the relationship.

Framed in gold brass frame and dark green or black matting.
