Subject:Artist Identification
Posted By: Connor C Sat, Aug 26, 2017 IP: 2605:6000:f512:3300:
I recently came upon a couple of pieces of art and I am looking for any information about the attached signatures. Even language of each would be appreciated.

In the images, the standalone stamp is on the same piece as the image with 3 lines of text. It is from a ~6 foot wall scroll of a village scene, the stamp is at the bottom left.

Thank you in advance.
