Hammer95 Posted December 3, 2017 at 11:34 PM Report Posted December 3, 2017 at 11:34 PM I have an antique from my grandfather and would like to know more about it. The only thing I can translate is (December, the 12th month). Can anyone help me please. I believe it says something about a landscape and about being young? It's a huge vase with a traditional Chinese brush painting. Quote

lips Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:17 AM Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:17 AM 初 青秋 暈山 水甲 圖寅 十 二 月 Stamp not clear enough to read. 甲寅(年) is 1974 or every 60 years before or after. 十二月 is the 12th month. 3 Quote
Hammer95 Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:43 AM Author Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:43 AM Thank you lips! I thought that it might be from the cyclical calendar. Can you give me the literal translation of the text? Is the left row a name? Quote
lips Posted December 4, 2017 at 04:32 AM Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 04:32 AM The leftmost column, 青暈, should be the name of the artist. The middle column, 初秋山水圖, is "landscape drawing in early autumn". 4 Quote
Publius Posted December 4, 2017 at 11:45 AM Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 11:45 AM The seal also looks like 青暈. Quote
Hammer95 Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:21 PM Author Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 02:21 PM Thanks lips and Publius. Is there and English translation for his name? Quote
Hammer95 Posted December 4, 2017 at 06:16 PM Author Report Posted December 4, 2017 at 06:16 PM Looks like Qing Yun? Quote
