I am trying to identify the painters whose paintings are in 28 issues the periodical 中國名畫集 (Zhongguo minghua ji). I have been unsuccessful for seven of them. The captions give the era, the (courtesy?) name of the painter, the title of the painting, the name of the collector. I would like to have the dates of birth and death of the painters, and the name by which they are officially known.

I found only one date of birth and death.

明　劉俊　Liu Jun of Ming

His courtesy name was 廷偉 Tingwei

宋　李權　Li Quan of Song 1265-1274

Her original surname was Shu (淑) married to Fan (范), was a native of Suzhou,Jiangsu. During the Kangxi period (1662-1722) was the head of female painters of Wumen. She painted mostly historical stories, myths and legends.
