crecords Posted January 28, 2014 at 02:16 AM Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 at 02:16 AM I am looking for some help translating a watercolor scroll that I have that is a very nice copy of a Ma Yuan piece. There is a note from a art historian that I am unable to find information on. The painting is very nicely done and I hope to figure out the artist.

skylee Posted January 28, 2014 at 10:44 AM Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 at 10:44 AM Thanks for mentioning Ma Yuan. I like his paintings. And this 秋江雨隱 seems to be quite famous. The five bigger words are 春水盹漁人. I am not sure about the line next to it. And the seal is too unclear. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crecords Posted January 29, 2014 at 02:52 PM Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 at 02:52 PM I have looked at hundreds of signatures and seals and I have had no luck figuring this out. I also can not find the art historian listed, it looks like Georgia E Cash??? I have tired different variations and have hit a brick wall. This painting seems like a very nice copy with a modern interpretation in color. It came from the estate of a former Asian art dealer in Miami.

scottt Posted February 5, 2014 at 07:29 AM Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 at 07:29 AM Next to the 春水盹漁人 is 己未 沉山主人 while 已未 = 1979 A.D. (Base on the paper quality) 沉山主人 = Artist's palname (沉 can be a family name. But not here)On the bottom (seal) (right=沉, left=山) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
