Subject:Chinese painting/art on Japanese scroll?

Posted By: Fleck Fri, Sep 14, 2018 In addition some pictures of an older scroll. I was told that the painting/artwork is Chinese, but the scroll was picked up in Japan by someone I know. |

Posted By: rat Mon, Sep 17, 2018 ah, now I understand your question. Yes, the Japanese have remounted Chinese scrolls as warranted for preservation, conservation, or repair/restoration. Traditional scrolls can be disassembled after soaking in water because they are glued to their backing and the surrounding silk is glued on with a paste made from wheat starch. The soaking also aids cleaning. |

Posted By: rat Fri, Sep 14, 2018 The Japanese have been collecting Chinese scrolls for over 1,000 years, though I don't know what the display practices in the tokonoma specifically were at that time. I would think that would be up to the owner and whether s/he thought the painting represented the mood they sought. Many of the earliest surviving Chinese scrolls in Japan were collected in Muromachi times. Here's a link to an older article about how Chinese painting style affected Japanese painting style at that time: https://www.jstor.org/stable/2384260?seq=3#metadata_info_tab_contents |

Posted By: rat Mon, Sep 17, 2018 yes, should be ok to do that but I think this painting may be entirely Japanese. Date seems to be 1923, though 1983 is not out of the question. Am not sure of the artist's actual name; several pseudonyms are offered here. I. Nagy may be able to look him/her up though |

Posted By: Fleck Thu, Sep 20, 2018 Hi I. Nagy, |
Subject:Re: Chinese painting/art on Japanese scroll?
Posted By: Fleck Wed, Sep 19, 2018 Thank you for the additional info. So, the writing on the upper left seems to be Japanese in your opinion? |
