至正八年呉興 - 8th Year of Zhizheng (1348) (in) Wuxing
孟頫趙子昂畫 - Picture of Mengfu Zhao Zi`ang
Seal;
趙子昂 - Zhao Zi`ang
Zhao Mengfu 趙孟頫 1254-1322
Courtesy name; Zi`ang 子昂
Scholar, painter and calligrapher during the Yuan Dynasty.
Your picture is seemingly a late or contemporary counterfeit. The dating is set 26 years after the death of the painter.The engraving style of seal looks rather modern, not listed among the seals used
by the artist (available in literature). Relatively vivid colors on an older paper
With regards,
