Subject:Pith paper(?) painting. Translation assistance please.
Posted By: joamuse Sat, Jul 14, 2018 IP: 2601:18f:800:39d8:4d
Could anyone assist with the translation on this painting?

I am not sure, but I think it is on pith or painted on silk. It has dimension when you see it in person. If anyone also knows how to tell the grain on pith vs painting on silk I'm all ears!

My reading and rough translation of inscriptions,

祖孫偕　
引此画取材於他人
余因喜震故再々成主是記
Grandfather and grandson together
This painting used me to paint other's pictures
Whenever I paint this theme it gives shocks of joy to me
Seal in my tentative reading,
劉川画　-　Liu Chuan　Picture

With regards,
I.Nagy
