Fuchi kashira mei

[shakudo]

Hi folks, would greatly appreciate help with this mei on this set thatI have purchased. I have a couple of resources but nothing showing up like these. I have used the listing pics and it shows more info that I would like the basic idea of.

These are not papered as yet but am considering submitting them. Thank you in advance, and a special thanks to the mods and to all members who make this forum my go to every morning. Regards Michael

Goto Mitsu ?

19 th century. the text deals with  the history of this man which began, fas as i understand in 1816 ( Bunka  13 ).

Mike, very nice, but the tosogu voyeurs would like close up, hi-res, in focus pics of  the fg.  Goto Mitsu??

I think, "Goto Mitsuaki + Kao"(後藤光晃)!

Hi Stefan and Uwe, thank you so much for your time and expertise. I thought the mei was in grass script( if thats what its called?) Seeing it in kanji Uwe makes it possible for me to decifer.Cheers.

Hi Bazza, yes photos are poor. I used the original yahoo listing and didnt think screen shot could be out of focus. Ill see if I can download file but not sure on its size. Thanks.

Thank you all and now for some research!

Regards Michael

Hello all, lets see if these load.

Cheers Michael.

ps. Any clues if this fails would be very helpful.

Mike, for me I saved the image to  my HDD and opened it in ACDSee.  Expanding it only produced fuzzy images.  Maybe take your own pics when they arrive, or maybe send the link you got your image from???

There is a vertical size limit, and that is why it resized. You would need to split that image into a few shorter ones.
