Subject:Help with an old painting
Posted By: Rob Thu, Mar 25, 2021 IP: 50.72.179.179

I am having trouble getting started on figuring out the age and origins of what appears to be a fairly old painting on paper.
It is sealed in glass front and back and the card inside the glass is from wah cheong art gallery in Hong Kong.
Any help would be appreciated
