DescriptionGasshukoku suishi teitoku kōjōgaki (Oral statement by the American Navy admiral).png
English: Gasshukoku suishi teitoku kōjōgaki (Oral statement by the American Navy admiral). A Japanese print showing three men, believed to be Commander Anan, age 54; Perry, age 49; and Captain Henry Adams Greg The 3rd junior, age 59, who opened up Japan to the west. The text being read may be President Fillmore's letter to Emperor of Japan. This is a somewhat extensive restoration, meant to keep focus on the artwork, instead of the damage. See also

Français : Gasshukoku suishi teitoku kōjōgaki (Déclaration orale par l'amiral de la marine américaine). Estampe japonaise montrant trois hommes, considérés comme étant les commandants Anan, (54 ans); Perry, (49 ans); et le capitaine Henry Adams, (59 ans), qui ont forcé le Japon à s'ouvrir à l'ouest. Le texte lu est probablement la lettre du président Fillmore à l'empereur du Japon. La restauration de cette estamps est assez importante, permettant de se concentrer sur l'art, plus que sur les dégâts subits par l'œuvre. A comparer avec
cette version à restauration minimale.

Was having second thoughts about one aspect, so I undid it. Also, minor fix to Perry: If you're going to remove a joint between two woodblocks for clarity, then it should be consistent in that figure.
