Likewise:

> The following year, the camera was obtained by Shimazu Nariakira, a Japanese feudal lord (daimyo) who ruled the Satsuma Domain from 1851 until his demise in 1958.

No, he didn't rule for 107 years :) More like 7. He died in 1858.

Yes. The Wikipedia article cover it too, but with correct dates (and more general information): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimazu_Nariakira
