<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 4503951, member: 56"]Here's a copy of the print in the Boston Public Library. This link includes a photo that can be greatly enlarged so you can clearly see what is written under the corners. Most of the prints I'm seeing online are not signed and do not have these notes. An entry on the Canadian National Gallery site (no photo) says the print is on laid Japanese paper. At high magnification in this link you can see the texture of the paper. Does the paper on yours look the same?</p><p><a href="https://www.digitalcommonwealth.org/search/commonwealth:3r076t21b" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.digitalcommonwealth.org/search/commonwealth:3r076t21b" rel="nofollow">https://www.digitalcommonwealth.org/search/commonwealth:3r076t21b</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This clip from the attachment posted earlier by Debora clearly shows image size and sheet size.
