Hello,

I have been looking at some watercolors from a Japanese artist, and am wondering about identification. I think that the signature might be 米洲, and on the back of one it is listed "Beishu". The age is almost certainly 1897-1903. Could this be 久保田米洲? (See link.) I am also showing a few photos with hopefully clear views of the seals, which are quite clear and detailed. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thank you, Peter. I should have checked more closely, but you are correct that it is a print. The artist's name is very helpful.

Signature,
米洲　-　Beishū
Leisure seal (Lower picture),
生涯画筆兼詩筆　-　Shōgai gahitsu ken shihitsu -
Lifelong I paint paintings and write poems

This leisure seal was used by Kawate Beishū　川手米洲　1867-1936
You can find the same leisure seal on the following site; http://www.fufufufu.com/product_detail/detail/productid/17706

Thank you once again, I. Nagy. I am glad that you were able to find the identical seal and make an ID with certainty.
