Subject:Tiger scroll painting
Posted By: Canuck Mon, Nov 20, 2017 IP: 2001:569:bd61:7d00:2

This Tiger Scroll comes in it's original cardboard box.
Very large, about 6 feet Tall x 2 feet wide.
The painting is on paper and the backing is fabric.

Can anyone translate the Calligraphy letters and tell me Who, Where and When this beautiful Tiger was painted ?

Reading of inscription:
雄風  Stately appearance
庚申春日 Year of Metal-Monkey (..1680...1920,1980)
On a Spring Day
壽平 Shouping ( Signature)
壽平 Shouping (Seal)

The style of signature imitates the signature of
惲壽平 Yun Shouping (1633-1690) famous Ming Dynasty
painter, as of the seal, it is not among the 16l seal prints, used by Yun Shouping.
There is a 2o.c. Shouping、Dong Shouping (董壽平)
whose signature and seal is also different.

I think I need not say the conclusion.

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thank You @I.Nagy for the info and translation. It's muchly appreciated.

When and where do you think this was made...
Do you think this painting is possibly for 1920 "Year of Metal-Monkey on a Spring Day" by a 3rd 壽平 Shouping ?
