Subject:Reading of Seals on Itō Chūta Sketch 464
Posted By: Irwin Sat, Aug 08, 2026 IP: 174.127.209.134
Help with the reading of the three seals that appear on Itō Chūta attached sketch would be appreciated. The commentary by Tokugawa Iesato 德川家逹 signing as Seigaku 靜岳. I'm pretty certain his commentary reads 現今斯界之重鎮
大正十年酉初春
— 靜岳
but please correct me, if required.
With thanks,
Irwin
