Is anyone please able to identify the artist who created this woodblock

 

print? I have owned it for 50 years and only managed to obtain the words Autumn Water” through Google translate.

Thank you

    The artist is Okakura Shûsui (1867-1950) 岡倉秋水, signing 秋水 Shusui

    The print is part of a book, see

      Thank you so much for your rapid reply and the link to further information about the artist. Much appreciated. I can now label the reverse of the framed print with this information. Thank you!
