Subject:Re: Japanese Painting
Posted By: rat Thu, Sep 04, 2014 Chinese rather than Japanese, dated mid spring 1996, by someone named Jiang Changxiu. I am uncertain of the subject, which reading the inscription on the right may help illuminate. I am wondering if it is meant to represent a turtle associated with longevity, though the turtle is often paired with a snake. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Tortoise) Otherwise I am at a loss and don't have time to read the inscription unfortunately. |
