Research and responses

This object was examined along with others from the Chamberlain Collection by Sekiko Matsuzaki-Petitmengin in June 2003 and 15 October 2007. She placed this object within the category of "Designs, iconographic models, histories and maps + Ofuda". [SM 06/10/2008]

This object was examined by Professor Itaru Chijiwa during his research visit in November 2008. He believes that 1908.82.564, 1908.82.570 and 11908.82.571 might be a set and possibly might not be Japanese. [SM 05/12/2008]
