Bought this painting from a local consignment shop. Thought it might be a Japanese Sumi-e painting, but I now think it is Chinese.
I was able to identify the first 2 characters in the writing as the date, Bing Shen (丙申), which would place the date of creation at 1956 or 1896, I don't believe it would be any earlier.
I don't know any of the other characters or the artist, so any help would be appreciated.
This is a fairly large painting, about 22" wide x 36" tall.
I've never seen this type of fibrous paper used before, but perhaps that is due to my lack of experience.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Tim
