"Mitate Chuya Niju-Yo Ji no Uchi" (Allusion to the Twenty-four Hours of the Day) This series is regarded as Kunichika's finest, completed bijin series. The prints are a fascinating collection of beauties in different aspects of lives and full of intriguing word-puns and allusions. At 10 o'clock in the morning : A lady is adjusting her shamisen. In the cartouche, a "Jujika" (Holly Cross) which was punned with "Juji" (Ten O'clock) and "Bachi" (the striking instrument for shamisen) with "Bachi" (Sin).
