Hello, I have had this screen of mine translated as, 元喬筆 - Painted by Genkyо̄ and 元喬 Genkyо̄ as the seal. Artist could be Hattori Nankaku who went by that name but would love to hear any opinions. The scroll has a couple of homemade repairs (not by me) that left holes in the back exposed. These can be easily repaired, but it gives an opportunity to see the daifuku (business ledgers) that were used to mount the screen. I thought this was an interesting thing to share as you don't often get to see this. Also, I was wondering if this is depicting a scene from the Tale of Genji? I have more pictures of the screen here: https://imgur.com/a/Y2m58VE

here is the signature and seal without having to look at the other pics on imjur.
