Hello,
Will appreciate your help in identifying this scroll. It is 54 1/2 inches tall and 21 1/2 inches wide. Thank you.

Good looking Scrool. By Qiu Seu Deng.

Hello Wendy,
Thank you for your response. Does Qiu Seu Deng use another name? I do not find any information on him. I might not be referencing the right resources.
Best,
Doug Johnson

"Wendy" is trolling you. This is Japanese, not Chinese, I believe depicting a monk though this is not my area. I. Nagy may be able to help

Hello,
Thank you for your help. I was stuck because I did not find any information on Qiu Seu Deng. I am confused why "Wendy" would give me false information but I appreciate you making me aware of the situation. Best, Doug Johnson

Your scroll is Japanese.
The lenghty religious inscription showers praises on the pictured Buddhist layman.
Colophon of the inscription,
二重堂主人　- By Nijūdō-shujin - Master of the Duble Hall - (Pseudonym)
一雲賛　　　-　Ichiun, complimented - (Art-name)
畫者并書　　-　Painted and Inscribed
Name under the picture,
与華繪　　　-　Picture of Yoka - (Buddha name of the depicted layman)
Seal,
來友齊　（斎）-　Raiyūsai - Pseudonym

Neither the artist nor the painted layman can be identified.

With regards,
I.Nagy
