Subject:Chinese silk scrolls - Please help translate the text and identify the artist
Posted By: MaryLynn Fri, Dec 13, 2024 IP: 45.88.222.92

My mother purchased these framed scrolls at an estate sale in Manhasset, NY during the 1970s. She was told that Madame Chiang Kai-shek may have previously owned them.
Can anyone please help translate the text on these scrolls and identify the artist?
Thank you.
