Subject:Japanese scroll Flower Painting identification help
Posted By: Larry Fri, Apr 26, 2019 IP: 104.142.126.185

Hello, This flower piece is another of the scrolls in my collection, purchased it from the same family as the previously identified Kikuchi Keigetsu painting (thanks to Mr Nagy!)

If possible, I would like help to identify the creator of this flower painting.
The scroll is rosewood mounted and has a paper label pasted at the end of the box.

I hope the images are clear enough - the seal inside the box is quite faint in the photograph so I've added an enhanced version.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Once again, Mr. Nagy, thank you so much for your assistance.

The artist who painted this scroll was always a mystery and I am very grateful for such thorough information.

best regards

Larry
