Presumably, Ishikawa Itsuo 石川逸翁 1844-
Native of Toyama, Original name Kumatarō. Learned Southern painting (Nanga) at Tetsuoh (Priest) and Kinoshita Itsu`un in Nagasaki. In the beginning of Meiji went to China and for 3 years learned "Danqing" painting in Shanghai from Hu Gongshou, Zhang Zixiang etc.
Returnig to Japan lived in Ǒsaka.
That is all what I could find about him in literature.
