Subject:Qing Dynasty Cranes?
Posted By: John Campbell Tue, Apr 21, 2020 IP: 47.144.222.231
I was told that this is a painting of Cranes created during the Qing Dynasty, but was given no further information regarding who the artist might be or who the seals represent> Can anyone in the forums provide some more insight? Thank you.

Inscription on the fringe (Right side),
清沈銓　以善鴫而馳名　-　Shen Quan of Qing was known far and wide for painting of snipes

Illegible seals

Inscription on the picture,
鶴飲流泉圖　-　Picture of cranes drinking water at flowing springs
巳未夏　-　In the Summer of the Year of Earth-Sheep (..1679...)
仙喬居士作　-　Painted by Xian Qiao the Retired Scholar - Pseudonym
Upper seal,
曾完　-　Zeng Wan - Surname and given name
僊喬居士　Xian Qiao - Xian Qiao the Retired Scholar (僊　is the alternative form of 仙）

Inscription on the fringe (Left side),
沈銓画鶴多.... There are many pictures depicting cranes painted by Shen Quan.....
壬子秋石谷題　-　In Autumn of Water-Rat （..1672..)
Inscription done by Shigu (Stone Valley) -Pseudonym

An another inscription in the form of commenting on Shen Quan's paintings by Shigu, an another famous Qing Dynasty painter Wang Hui 王翬　1652-1717.
Seals,
石谷　-　Shigu a.k.a Wang Hui
金農　-　Jin Nong 1687-1763
Name of an another famous Qing Dynasty painter.

Jing Nong was not even born at the time when his
seal was affixed there !!!

I couldn't find anything about Xian Qiao the Retired Scholar a.k.a. Zeng Wan the painter of the picture.

With regards,
I.Nagy
