One of the more esoteric books we've inherited is a volume of Ogden Nash poems translated to Latin.

So I ran the latin through a translator to see how accurate it was. Fairly good, I thought.

As often as I gaze upon it, I cannot help but be overcome; I do not blame the asp for the panting breath of terror—but what of its killing of Cleopatra?

I don't think it's Hokusai. Hiroshige? 1800s anyway.

When I was trying to decide a Hokusai / Hiroshige conundrum a couple of years ago (ie was the painting a Hokusai or a Hiroshige), I was told that if it had people in it, it was a Hiroshige as Hokusai rarely included people in his work. I've never really researched this though it appears to be the case here . . .
