Subject:Identify Japanese painting on silk
Posted By: Jim Lewis Thu, Jan 25, 2007 IP: 71.30.103.226

This is one of two paintings (in ink?) on silk bought by my family while we lived in Japan in the early-to-mid 50s.

Pic 1 is the painting. The second is the signature and seal.

I'd like to hear from anyone who can tell me something about this picture.

The other painting we have also is a monochrome painting of a Japanese thatched house and a larger building (with a waterwheel) on a canal or stream bank. There's someone fishing in a small boat in the canal or stream and a couple of pedestrians wandering by on the bank.

Many thanks for any help you can give me.

Maybe it'll help to have the picture here. (?)

And the signature.
