Subject:Help with Bronze Inscriptions on Censer
Posted By: JoJo Tue, Apr 20, 2021 IP: 2601:85:4700:4940:2d
Hello,

Can someone please help me translate the inscriptions on this bronze censer? I'm hoping to determine the inscription that belongs to the artist and/or maker of this piece.

Thank you all in advance for your help!

Reading of markings,
Pic.1,
信　- Nobu (Given name) 僊人　-　Sennin (Hermit)
Pic.2,
窮　- Kiwame (Utmost) 亭　-　Tei (Pavillion)
雪舟　-　Sesshū ( Name of a 15.c painter; Sesshū Tōyō, who uesd a seal exactly with the same cut)
Pic.3
守信　-　Morinobu　(Poshumous name of the 17c. Japanese painter Kanō Kan'yū）　卯田　- Uda
(A surname that cannot be tied anywhere - It might be the surname of the artist making this censor)
I can't read the third character.

With regards,
I.Nagy
