Below is a link to information in a UK eBay auction of similar dragonware with the same markings (some with variant character forms). The kanji on yours and the other is: 大日本, 薩广国, 錦谷製, 恒信画 -- "Dai Nihon (Great Japan), Satsuma (no) kuni (The Satsuma Fiefdom), Nishikitani Sei (Made by Nishikitani), Hisashishin ga (painted by Hisashishin)"

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131062458954?

The transliteration is as rendered in the eBay listing. I have not tried to verify its accuracy.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Bill,

I read the names in this context as 'Dai Nippon, Satsuma (no) kuni, Kinkoku sei, Hisanobu ga'.

The Bonhams expert reads the painter's name as Tsunenobu (not Hisanobu).

See link below.
