Thanks for the reply rat.

I am grateful to see Song Wenzhi's original work with this scene, it is truly beautiful! Indeed, it is obvious that my duplication is close but missing some of the energy of the original. I will enjoy the scroll more now, thanks.

The "attributed to" seems to be an optimistic assessment - and I would expect no less in a commercial description. I appreciate your expertise in this area that was able to quickly identify the original, but for a regional auction house should I expect this to be an obviously forged inscription? I'm relatively naive in this world, but a bit of quick research into art auction terms suggest "after" or "in the manner of" would be the go to term for such a work? Appreciate hearing your thoughts on expectations, just curious what the norm is.
