Could someone please help translate this mark ?

[JMT72]

I’m sorry I don’t know which direction this mark is supposed to go as I’ve never seen this one before. Could some please help tell me which mark this is ? I have a Chinese hunt seen bowl purchased years ago from a flea market. Thank you

Looks 苏锦德绘, meaning drawn by a person named 苏锦德.

Note the image has been flipped. Or it was somehow stamped the wrong way. But how could that happen?

Thank you so much for answering. I really appreciate your help . Would you mind taking a look at the bowl to tell me if you believe it’s old or newer ?

I may have take a pic of the marking upside down. I didn’t know which direction it was supposed to go . ☹️

The problem isn't an upside down photo. It's a mark that's flipped, a mirror image of the proper orientation. Really odd.

 

So too is that design. Dalmations don't feature much in Chinese art. Could this actually be European with some fake Chinese flavour? Would a Chinese artist put the mark on backwards?

I know there are some Chinese export pieces with the English hunt scene. They are very rare though. Some of them are with quite a bit. I would love for my piece to be .Lol

That's exactly why that poorly applied flipped mark should make you cautious. Like someone trying make an English hunt bowl appear Chinese. But oops!

Yes, I’m afraid it’s probably a reproduction . Luckily it was very inexpensive. Thank you so much for your reply.
