S H U N G A  -  Miscellaneous (mostly) koban-sized prints

some being 'EGOYOMI' (calendar prints)

NOTE:  some of the prints below are so-called 'egoyomi' shunga (erotic prints with hidden calendar dates). They carry numerals, indicating
the long and/or short months of a lunar year. Their specific combination allows the identification of the year. Below, such prints are labeled
accordingly. - Egoyomi can also be found with  surimono. The numerals were often printed with metallic pigments and hidden in graphic
patterns of the print (like clothes, e.g.) which makes them more difficult to locate and decipher, as in some examples below.
