Subject:ID of Japanese scroll painting
Posted By: John Lord Wed, May 20, 2020 IP: 2001:8003:5103:1300:

Help, please. This scroll painting of kingfisher on a branch measures 32 x 43cm. Supposedly by Nishimura Goun (1877-1938) but does not appear to be his signature.
Can anybody identify signature, seal, and inscription on scroll mount?
(I posted this before but seem to have forgotten photos.)
