Notes | See:- Robinson, 1961, no. 161; This series of prints shows kabuki actors in roles likened to seven legends concerning Ono no Komachi, a beautiful ninth century poetess. The seven legends are taken from the ‘Nanakomachi’ noh plays, which deal with apocryphal incidents from the poetess’s life (hence the title Nanakomachi). The seven episodes are: Shimizu Komachi (or Kiyomizu Komachi), Amagoi Komachi (or Yamamoto Komachi), Soshi-arai Komachi, Kayoi Komachi, Omu Komachi, Sekidera Komachi and Sotoba Komachi. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only.
