Posted By: Mikeoz Mon, Nov 14, 2016 The caption reads 秀峰成章. The last character means something like 'chapter', so I assume it refers to a Chinese novel or similar about a beautiful mountain group of people. |

Posted By: Kay Tue, Nov 15, 2016 Seems a bit older based on when it was purchased (1969), but trust your expertise! Thank you! |

Posted By: rat Tue, Nov 15, 2016 This is a Japanese painting of a Chinese scene, the artist's name Mikeoz has already transcribed. I don't know the Japanese pronunciation, perhaps one of the Japanese experts will read it for you. |
