Subject:Help with title and signature
Posted By: Teresa Sun, Sep 11, 2011 IP: 94.171.250.132

I would appreciate any help with this picture I bought at a flea market. I would like to have it mounted and reframed for my daughters 18th birthday and would like to include the title and artists name. The picture seems to be painted and the detail on the hairband and collar are everso slightly raised and it really is beautiful.
Many thanks
Teresa

Sorry, didn't add the pictures correctly on my previous post, hope this works! The middle picture is on the reverse.

The signature says Shōen (Uemura Shōen). The seal is not her name; it's possibly the publisher's seal, as the characters look similar to the ones in your second picture, which gives the name of the publisher.

Thank you for confirming what I have been told in another message that the artist is uemura Shouen. Apparently it is called Spring Evening.
