Posted By: Pickles Tue, Jun 20, 2023 Adding to my own post … I found a closed Sotheby’s auction of the same/similar painting - the stokes are lighter, smoother. In my version, strokes appear heavier and chunkier 😵💫 Also, in my novice thinking, did artists really paint the exact same layout and details? I would think that would be boring as heck to try and re-do the same scene 🤷🏻♀️ |

Posted By: Pickles Sun, Jul 09, 2023 This one got approved by Christie's specialists after seeing it in person. Very thrilling to watch the experts evaluate it. |

Posted By: Pickles Mon, Oct 16, 2023 An update on this one that I wanted to share. It is a Xu Beihong, but wasn't accepted by Christie's ... they were thoughtful in providing reasons for their decision. It was viewed as perhaps the artist having a "bad day" with this painting. |
