Hi Rat,

The seals on the landscape fan are clear, but confusing. The first character of the 'signature' line is 'O', meaning a goose. It has been written with the 'Wo' (I,me) on top of the 'Niao' bird, while the more conventional printed character has these elements side by side. The next character (and second seal) is Chi, meaning Pond.

I am still in hospital (week 6) and away from my references so can't make much further comment. But this might start others. Looks like a pen name to me, otherwise why the seals with the same characters!
