It's worth noting that the link on the page to the list of pictures contains a mis-transliteration in search of "banbutsu" for "banmotsu" leading to a blank result. Both are possible for 万物, but the prior is more common.
I believe this is the correct link to a full list of the Lost Sketches: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/search?keyword=ehon...

Every few months I post this link again about how ALL comics (well, at least Japanese ones...) start from Hokusai Manga and this exhibit tells that story beautifully.

It's terrific, and touring for several years all over the world.
