Subject:Japanese hanging scroll 02
Posted By: Horst Graebner Thu, Jun 30, 2022 IP: 178.4.21.169

Also help needed reading the signature on this Japanese hanging scroll.
The writing on the box says: 遊蛙之図 - Yū kaeru no zu - Frog picture
Probably mid 20th century.
I read the signature Seiho "青圃" (?)
Seal: ??
Who is the artist?
Horst

And again, thank you very much for reading and for the information. Excellent!
I found at least one kanji of the signature. :-)
