Hi Ed, the signature (left side) is "Jokatsusai Hoichi + kao" who was more commonly known as Chinju (Haynes 00306.0).  He lived in Inshu ju Inaba Province and was alive in the mid 1800's.  The Hoichi name can also be read as Yasukazu.  The kanji on the right side indicate that the image is derived from a certain artist's painting.

Thanks, George. I will look for more works by this man. If there is a reference to a painting it would be very interesting to see that work. Ed
