Re: Re: 24k ep color fisherman catching fish |
Posted By: Bill H Posted Date: Mar 06, 2013 (04:26 PM) |
Message The symbol at the upper left is a simplified version of the long life character "Shou" (寿 [壽]), as shown here. It's unclear whether you already know, but "ep" usually means "electroplate" in a context like this. The fisherman has the well-muscled heroic look that suggests the artist was schooled in Social Realism, which style prevailed on the China Mainland during the early People's Republic era (post-1949). This may indicate that your picture dates around the third quarter of the 20th century. Best regards, Bill H. Post a Response |
