Subject:Help with Satsuma Mon
Posted By: Tom Sat, Jan 24, 2015 IP: 199.59.106.195 I have tried to figure this one out on the various websites but can't find it. If anyone can read it I would appreciate it. Thank you. |

Posted By: Guy Wed, Jan 28, 2015 It reads 吉茄. I'm not sure about the pronunciation. I should spell it 'Kichika' (alternative reading: 'Yoshina'). |

Posted By: Bill H Thu, Jan 29, 2015 I'm also unsure of the pronunciation in Japanese, but I believe the mark is a single character (嘉), which would be transcribed "Jia" in Chinese. When referring to the Ming Jiajing emperor, the common Japanese transcription would be "Kasei". |

Posted By: Tom Thu, Jan 29, 2015 Thank you, Guy. I thought it was a nice piece too. I found one reference to this artist in an online book of Japanese artist's seals. There sure were a lot of people involved in this industry. |
