Subject:Japanese Watercolour; Artist & Date Identification
Posted By: Stephen Fell Tue, Sep 26, 2017 IP: 2a02:c7f:1a18:2a00:b

Here is a watercolour obtained from a local auction house. It has a seal with signature and is of Mount Fuji & I assume is Japanese possibly from the 1920's.

Signature and seal reads alike
峰月  Hogetsu
On the net I could find two modern (contemporary)
artists under this name
The first and possibly the painter of this work:
田中峰月 Tanaka Hogetsu born in 1933
Unfortunately except of short biographical information there are no pictures available
from him.
The second painter:
前川峰月 Maekawa Hogetsu
Without any biographical data some galleries are offering works from the artist,(presumedly contemporary) which are quire different in style.
With regards,
I.Nagy
