Hi All,

Seal,

Inscription on mounting,
馮曼儂花鳥屏 - Flower and bird screen by Féng Mànnóng

Feng Mannong 1918-2012
paintress, wife of the famous painter Yu Zicai 1915-1992

The inscription on the screen was done by Qian Tianpeng 1893-1972, who was a famous agriculturist playing an important role in Taiwan's agriculture.

With regards,

Thanks again I.Nagy! I found some references to Feng painting with her husband on a couple of pieces. Nice to know. I think this painting is pretty nice. Cheers!
