It is a large frame (7' x 4') with horses subject in the painting style of Xu Beihong. Am not sure whether it is a woodblock print or painting? Would really appreciate your expert input :)
Many thanks !!!

By my fault assumption, somehow I thought (all) galloping horse paintings must be by or after Xu Beihong's style or print! I just now realized that this work can also be a painting of horses by another artist ... ?
Very much appreciated your help on the artist's info / writing.
(I stacked the frame away, and will post clearer picture of it on the next post)
