About Ishikawa Toyonobu

Ishikawa Toyonobu was a Japanese ukiyo-e print artist. He is sometimes said to have been the same person as Nishimura Shigenobu, a contemporary ukiyo-e artist and student of Nishimura Shigenaga about whom very little is known. His earliest works are indeed signed "Nishimura Magosaburō Shigenobu"; he only later adopted the gō Tanshōdō, Meijōdō and Shūha.
