    Hi,
    Trying to figure out if this is a wood block print 12"x16". This is on paper and was folded over a piece of cardboard - photo #4 shows outline or impression of the design on the cardboard, not sure how that would have happened.
    Also hoping someone will know the seal - I've been looking for a while now but not finding it.
    Any ideas or information appreciated.
    thanks for looking.

    Looks like a 'Chop' (stamp) to me but no clue about the work.

    Looks like one, but it's not a traditional one. Is it really thin paper? What they call mulberry paper?

    No, not really thin, has a rough texture to it

    Probably not then, but a print of some kind. Most wood blocks done the traditional way bled through the paper.
