Subject:japanese scroll 2 tanuki help with translation of signature and seal
Posted By: Michael Wed, Feb 06, 2019 IP: 2a02:a03f:56fa:8e00:
Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me out with the signature and seal of this scroll. I think the signature reads 美石 - biseki and the first part of the seal aswell. Any additional information about the painter is always welcome.
Thank you in advance
Best regards,
Michael
