Subject:Painting: Identify Characters and Seal
Posted By: Miano Wed, Dec 11, 2024 IP: 111.90.203.74
Hello Friends,

I want to identify the artist and/or period.

It is a painting with calligraphy (characters) and seals. Would you be able to translate the characters/seals, advise any artist whom this work may have attributed to and the period(60-year cycle)?

Finally, is this Japanese or Chinese?

Kind regards,

Miano
