Note: Since the left panel of this
triptych is missing, the date of this
print and the name of the artist
cannot be conclusively established,
although it looks like the work of
Utagawa Kunsidada III (as Kochoro).
Based on an ehon sujigaki for this
lay which depicts this scene, the
missing panel would appear to
depict another naval warship, possibly
in distress.  If you have an image of
this panel, please contact me.
