I checked Doi Kinkoku's signature on other pictures available on the net. I have found out that he sometimes signed his works;
錦谷作於 - Painted by Kinkoku at
霧雨居 - Kirisame-kyo - Misty residence
I think somebody misread 霧雨 kirisame (on reading; mu'u) for "suiu"
On your painting both signature and seal read 翠雨
Suiu (Jade rain). The problem is that I can't find
reference signatures from the other artists.

As of the pseudonyms, Japanese professional painters are using pseudonyms or "gagō-s", artistic names instead of their original given names.These artistic or pen-names (pseudonyms) may be retained for a lifetime, or may change from time to time. They don't use their original given names except for family register related occasions, marriage,divorce, death etc.

With regards,
I.Nagy
