*''Japanese'': [[渡辺]] 秀石 ''(Watanabe Shuuseki)''
Watanabe Shûseki was an [[Edo period]] painter known for his paintings of the [[Dejima|Dutch]] and [[Tojin yashiki|Chinese]] compounds at [[Nagasaki]]. After being commissioned to produce record paintings of those two sites in [[1699]], his scrolls were reportedly so informative that officials commissioned him to then produce a number of additional copies; eight such sets are known to survive today.
