Dear Ryan, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry and for your patience. Considering these images, this is: A remarkable Chinese painting of a landscape on paper (probably mulberry or pith paper) from 20th century. It depicts deep snow that covers the slope of present-day Shizuoka Prefecture. The painting is signed in the upper left corner, where there is an inscription that is read "made in the sixth year of the Republic of China". There are a fair amount of paintings signed that imitates artist's signature, and without any other document or proof, it is not certain. Artist not recognized. Very good condition. PROVENANCE: Unknown. $ 250 - 450 *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
