I purchased this Chinese scroll several years ago. I believe the artists are Qi Gong and Qi Baishi. There is also a sticker on the end of the wood roller. If anyone can help with the identification and or translation on the scroll and or the end of the roller I would greatly appreciate that. Thank you in advance for your time in this matter.

Your scroll has nothing to do with Qi Baishi, this scroll is inscribed, stamped, labeled as by Qi Gong only. Whether it is genuine is another matter. US$50,000 is the approximate level several pieces of his calligraphy have sold for at Christies in recent years.

Rat,

Thank you for your help. It is greatly appreciated by myself and as I am sure the many others you have helped in the past on this site
