    The same print was posted on Q&A in May 2021 (sharper image)

    At the time AlecW gave this answer
    I've located two other prints from the series in museum collections, but I'm afraid that clear answers appear to be lacking.
    The series is entitled 江都十所絶景, read either "Kōto jussho zekkei" (MFA Boston) or "Edo jisho zekkei" (British Museum). The artist is either Chōbunsai Eishi (MFA) or Katsukawa Shunchō (BM). The publisher seal(s) appears to be unidentified.

    There's also a third design listed on a retail site. None of the designs appear to have been signed. Quite the mystery!

    The same print was posted on the same day by Francis Minvielle,

    it is not the first time that a print is posted on the same day on both forums by the same two persons, so next time, check the Asian Arts forum before looking for an answer!
