Let's get with the terms. For you there is a difference between the concepts of "author's impression" and "original print"? For you, this is the meaning the same thing or not? If not, then what is the difference?

Actually, if you do not think globally, and on topic, it must be remembered that no copyright imprints in Japan were up to the twentieth century. The role of the artist was limited to the implementation of the original sketch in ink, and marking coloring engraving proofs. Further work on the engraving other people, and copyright has been a publisher, an artist no control over the process was not.
