I recently purchased this Yan Yutian signed bottle on blue glass featuring a camel in a winter landscape. It is about 3 inches tall. I believe it to be an authentic bottle painted late 19th/early 20th Century. Does anyone have any information about this bottle or Yan Yutian?

From what I can tell, Yan Yutian was a Middle Period painter of Manchu birth who lived and worked in Beijing from the 1880s to around 1910.

Looks pretty good and authentic. Yan is late Qing to Early Republic early 20th century. I think he is in demand today. A genuine one could fetch 10k in today's market. (blue glass puts me off a bit).

Good luck.
