Subject:Translation please?
Posted By: Ken Fri, May 08, 2015 IP: 73.25.209.174

I have an old watercolor sketch book with 10 leafs but have no idea who the artist is. Any help with a translation will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Ken

This doesn't give the artist's actual name, rather the seal impressions and inscription offer an array of pen and other names taken by the artist, or perhaps by the album's owner(s). The large characters seem to be a title for the album. The calligraphy is ok. You are more apt to find the artist's name on a seal impression on one or more of the leaves. Try posting any of those that have any seals, particularly the last one. This is a 20th century work.
