Subject:Chinese/Japanese Scrolls Wallpaper ? Need help to ID
Posted By: Kluzie Sun, Nov 07, 2021 IP: 2001:56a:76b8:5c00:a

Had these two scrolls for quite some time. Don't know if they are Chinese or Japanese. There is some writing on the side of the scrolls but I cannot read it. Can someone translate ? Could they be chinese export wallpaper mounted as scrolls or maybe originally part of a screen ?? They are about 20" x 68".



Any comments with respect to age/origin and writing translation would be appreciated.

I guess it could be 50-100 years old.
