not a genuine Qi Baishi painting but a copy by someone who is focused far more on the trees than the forest. not a print. notice how all the shrimp have nearly identical ink tonality. also notice how they are placed on the picture surface, crowded over at the lower left, and mostly pointed down and to the left with tails curled to the right. now compare with a real Qi Baishi painting or even some decent copies, and the differences should leap out at you.
