Subject:China or Japan Fan Painting
Posted By: Rosa Wed, Sep 20, 2017 IP: 199.59.106.195

Hi, just wondering if anyone can read the artist's seal on this piece. I think it's dated "67" Thank you.

Inscription reads,
雪佳三児大雅之屬
Three Xue Jin (Snow white) maidens of elegance
(In China snow white is the synomym of beauty)
乙卯夏二月 古
Year of Wood Rabbit (...1915,1945) 2nd Month of Summer Old (i.e old calendar)
(Cyclical date which is repeated in every 60th year)
Signature,
呉周権  Wu Zhouquan
(I could not find painter under this name on
Chinese web sites or in other literature)
Seal: if I am right with the reading,
稽摸 Jimo (Learning from imitation)
This is an art-name

With regards,
I.Nagy

The painting is dated 乙卯 or 1915 in this case, very natural representation of the women.
