Hi Juan, Yes you are right, from your detailed photographs I can see that the "Wen Zhengming" painting is better quality than I first thought, but still not by Wen, certainly Qing dynasty. The label on the left belongs to the "Wen Zhengming" painting, the one on the right belongs to the deer painting. It says that it is imitating Song dynasty painting style, but actually it is imitating paintings of deer by Zhu Da/Bada Shanren, who has become very popular for his appealing paintings and their quirks.
Can you please take a close up photograph of the two seals near the signature on the "Wen Zhengming" painting?
