Long seal,
敦煌壁畫　Dunhuang mural picture

*　[Yuan　Dynasty] A famous mural artist. His birth and death dates are unknown. On the mural wall of Cave 3 of Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, there is a title that seems to be the painters, which reads 甘州　史小玉　"Ganzhou Shi Xiaoyubi". Ganzhou is now Zhangye, Gansu, so it is known that Shi Xiaoyu was from Zhangye. The six-character inscription in Cave 3 could still be clearly seen in the 1980s, but it has completely disappeared now. (Baidu Encyclopedia)

With regards,
I.Nagy
