Inscriptions,

China, Chongqing Museum, Zu Mingmin
Seal,
祖明民印 - Seal of Zu Mingmin

Zu Mingmin 1929-
Born in Chongqing City. Admitted to the New China Academy of Art in 1950. Learned under Su Baozhen.
Combination of Chinese and Western painting formed his own unique style. He is particularly good at painting vast forest landscapes. His works have won awards in municipal, provincial and national competitions.

Hi Nagy Thanks a lot. We can allways count on you. But tell me, This is not Zhu Ming, the bronze fellow?? This is another Zu ming ( min)?? How come I cant find anything about the painter you describe on the net? Kind regards Steen

Dear Steen,
Your picture was painted by Zu Mingmin 祖明民 -
The bronze fellow from Taiwan, Zhu Ming 朱銘 is
a different person. The Chinese have their own search engines - but they are only on Chinese language. Without the knowledge of Chinese it is impossible to get detailed information on Chinese things.

With regards,
I.Nagy

I have found a article on the web with Zu Mingmin. It's from 2007 where he is 77 years old. It's a Chinese Gallery that opend in Iceland back in 2007. Here is the link if you are interested.
