Message Hi, my visceral reaction is that this is Chinese. The righthand column of characters reads downward as 'Sketched during the eighth lunar month of autumn in the geng chen year' (geng chen qiu ba yue xie). Geng chen occurred in the past couple of centuries in 1820, 1880, 1940 and the year 2000. The bold characters on the left comprise the name Mu Zhongdian. I'm not certain of what the red seal says but it doesn't appear to be the same name. Best regards, Bill H. Post a Response |
