康熙癸巳年立春上浣之時吉文 - On am Auspicious Day in the First 10 Days Period of Beginning of Spring in the Year of Water-Snake of Kangxi Reign (1713)
呂煥城 - After *Lu Huancheng
臨作 海上宛斎 - by *Haishang Wanzhai -Pseudonym-
* Lu Huancheng 呂煥成 1630-1705
Known early Qing dynasty painter.
Note, the name is written mistaken 呂愌城!

It's striking that the painters' names are mistaken on both pictures !!
