Signature,
法橋眼蝶齋 - Hokkyō Genchōsai
Hokkyō (法橋 Bridge of the Law) originally a Buddhist monastic rank, but from the Edo period it was given to artists, too.
The seal is not clear enough to read. The last two
characters are .....之印 Seal of ....
In the literature I can`t find artist with pseudonym Genchōsai.

With regards,
I.Nagy
