Posted By: Guy Mon, Sep 01, 2014 The seal reads 'Chûhô' and refers to the Zen artist Shogetsu Chuho So-u (宙宝宗宇, 1759-1838). |

Posted By: Guy Wed, Sep 03, 2014 Btw, the seal is in the shape of a little jar (kotsubo). |

Posted By: Fujin Thu, Sep 04, 2014 Thanks Guy! I always thought that this shape was supposed to be a Censer! Is there any significance behind this shape, for a seal? I have some other scrolls with this shape seal! |

Posted By: Guy Sun, Sep 07, 2014 I think that Peter gives us the conclusive answer about the seal. So, no 'tusbo' or 'kotsubo' as I suggested. |

Posted By: Guy Sat, Sep 06, 2014 I can't read the signature which is written in cursive hiragana. |

Posted By: fujin Sun, Sep 07, 2014 Wow, that is really interesting! Thank you so much Peter an Guy! And, Peter, thanks for letting me know that it is actually Fukurokuju, wikipedia says - |

Posted By: fujin Mon, Sep 08, 2014 I should have said 'Chinese tripod' shaped seal in last post, as Peter you are correct. I had a look on google and there are some great images of Chinese Tripods. |

Posted By: Stan Thu, Sep 11, 2014 Just to confirm, the first picture above is Kano Tsunenobu's signature. He uses the same symbol on his woodblock prints. |
