Subject:Help Identifying Painting from Japan
Posted By: Natalie Sun, Jul 31, 2016 IP: 70.176.209.49

Hello everyone,

This painting was given to me by my grandmother, who told me that this painting was obtained by my late grandfather when he was in Japan in WWII. We know nothing else about it, but are interested if it is anything of note or just a nice painting. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is a print. You can see where the color registration did not quite fit if you look closely at the supposed seal mark.

This is a printed reproduction of a Chinese picture done during the Republican era, probably in the 1930s, Hang Zhiying 杭穉英. Here's a bio about him in Chinese: http://baike.baidu.com/view/687236.htm
