Subject:Identity of artist and ink drawings
Posted By: Emma w Sat, Aug 12, 2017 IP: 142.167.254.190

Hello,

We have a series of six original ink drawings that we are hoping to identify. Any information on the artist would be helpful. I have attached a picture of one of the six images.
We believe it is from the post WWII time period in Japan.

Could apply to Yu Wen Xiang (余文襄)1910-93.
He was a painter of icy and snowy landscapes.
Also known as porcelain painter in Jingdezhen.
With regards,

Thank you very much for the info. When I tried to find information on that artist, I had some trouble. Do you know of any good sources where we could learn more?

Thanks again,
Emma

Dear Emma,
The above explanation is a somewhat shortened
translation of the Chinese text I have found
on a Chinese language website. There was nothing
more detail given on the painter.
With regards,
