I like this scroll and have always wanted a tiger because they are so expressive. My question is does the value of a scroll drop by default if it is cut out of a larger piece? Logic would say so. Any adapted artwork suffers. However, the work isn't ridiculously expensive so it just could be in the correct range. Funds are limited so I will and have to compromise. Thanks for any thoughts in advance. Best wishes David
