I'm looking for some help in identification of this painting. Any info would be very much appreciated.

"Two dragons playing with the pearl (of wisdom)" by someone named Zhuang Kuan. It's a recent version of a theme with long history, eg see Chen Rong's famous painting: https://scrolls.uchicago.edu/scroll/nine-dragons

If you happen to be near Manhattan another picture attributed to Chen is being auctioned by Christies next week, it will be on view in the Christie's showroom (http://www.christies.com/features/important-chinese-art-from-the-fujita-museum-7942-3.aspx)

Thank you so much for that information! You are very kind to help. I have a friend that I am helping out. It was an inheritance. You might of just made his day! Thank you again.
