介绍（中）	一位和她的两个年轻女侍从喜欢看一种旋转的影子灯笼（mawari dōrō）。纺车连接到插入中间的棍子上，以充当旋转器。当蜡烛被点燃并放置在灯笼内时，上升的气流导致车轮旋转，这反过来又旋转了内框并在外层投下阴影。旋转灯笼由一个外框组成，上面附有一层薄薄的纸，里面是一个纸筒，上面有和她的随行人员游行的剪裁形状。蜡烛在圆柱体旋转时照亮圆柱体，以产生数字在运动的视错觉。在这里，灯笼投射出游行（Shinzō），儿童服务员（kamuro）和仆人（kasha）。虽然这幅版画的标题是Keisei nayose（的名字），但剧本实际上是一首俏皮的歌曲，融合了妓院区的名称。印花没有印章，但独特的人物风格与奥村正信的风格一致。的发型表明该印花是在 1710 年代或 1720 年代设计的。这是 tan-e 的一个例子，这是一种早期印刷品，用橙红色（棕褐色）颜料以及黄色、深红色、浅靛蓝和绿色手工着色——从 1688 年左右到 1710 年代流行。
介绍（英）	A courtesan and her two young female attendants enjoy watching a type of revolving shadow lantern (mawari dōrō). A spinning wheel was attached to a stick inserted into the middle to act as the spinner. When a candle was lit and placed inside the lantern, the rising air current caused the wheel to spin, which in turn rotated the inner frame and cast a shadow on the outer layer. The revolving lantern consists of an outer frame onto which a thin layer of paper is attached, and inside is a paper cylinder with cut-out shapes of a procession of a courtesan and her entourage. A candle illuminates the cylinder as it is rotated to create optical illusion that the figures are in motion. Here the lantern projects a parading courtesan (shinzō), child attendants (kamuro), and servants (kasha). Though the print is entitled Keisei nayose (names of courtesans), the libretto is actually a playful song incorporating the names of brothel districts. The print lacks a seal, but the distinctive figure style aligns with that of Okumura Masanobu. The courtesan’s hairstyle indicates that the print was designed in the 1710s or 1720s. This is an example of a tan-e, a type of early print that is hand-colored with an orange-red (tan) pigment as well as yellow, crimson, pale indigo, and green—popular from around 1688 to the 1710s.
