I have Mounted on what appears to be cloth, and its paper is toning a bit. It is identified as "Plum Blossoms" by Eisen, but the blossoms appear to have faded a lot as one can see. Is this "the real deal"? At least its colors are not bright and on white paper, and it is absolutely not recent. Thank you.
I suppose differences in color are not necessarily significant in wood block prints: https://www.roningallery.com/plum-blossoms-2101
