I have a scroll of horses that was painted by a Asian artist. Can you take a look at the photos and let me know if this is an original?

Thanks

Neal

Picture No.1
Seals,
(Left) 悲鴻息　Beihongxi (Beihong Resting) Leisure seal
Right, 辛酉　　Xinyou　　　 58th year of the 60 year cycle, or Arduous Bird (Referring the meaning of the second character in afrtist`name "Hong"

I could not find either of the seals in my books or on the net among about two douzens of seal prints
used by the artist.- Needs some research on my side-

Picture No.2
一九四七年　　　1947　Year
悲鴻 寫　　　　 Painted by Beihong
Seal reads: 悲鴻　　Beihong

Xu Beihong (1895-1953) Chinese painter known for his paintings of horses and birds.

I can`t vouch for the originality of the painting.
There are quite many counterfeits of his paintings,
specially horses.

With regards,
I.Nagy

modern imitation of Xu Beihong, who is well-known for his horses
