Whimsical woodblock print by Utagawa Hirokage (Japanese, active 1855–1865). Four people are sitting on the porch of what appears to be a barber shop. They are laughing and pointing at one person who has just received a bad haircut (the alternate title of this piece is "Unfortunate Customer at the Barbershop in Asasaka").
Presented in a black and gold frame with a blue-grey mat.

Utagawa Hirokage, also known as Ichiyūsai Hirokage, was a Japanese designer of ukiyo-e woodblock prints, who was active from about 1855 to 1865. He was a pupil of Utagawa Hiroshige I. From 1860 to 1861, Hirokage designed the series of ōban size prints titled Edo meisho dōke zukushi (Joyful Events in Famous Places in Edo). His reputation is based primarily upon this series and his 1859 triptych Aomono sakana gunzei daikassen no zu (The Great Battle between the Fruits and Vegetables and the Fish).
