Subject:Meiji Satsuma artist mark (hard to see photos)
Posted By: Rob Fri, May 01, 2020 IP: 2601:c6:ce7f:c750:20
Came across these online.
Meiji style but it has bad photos.

Looks to be some variation of Dai Nihon/Nippon, (satsuma/satsuma make), and then in the left-most column it looks to be something ending in "-zan."

Any help would be appreciated, sorry for the photos I am trying to request better quality ones.

Thanks!

Looks to me like:
Dai 大 Nippon 日本 (great Japan).
Satsuma 薩广 (with a shortened "ma" 摩 character).
Kinkozan 金光山 (Normally written like this: 錦光山).
Regards,
Martin.

Thank you very much, Martin!
Did not want to assume - as the absence of an engraved Kinkozan seal/script via his studio could have multiple implications on a piece that appears to be prime Meiji
