Hello, this item is a Chinese ink and watercolor painting on silk depicting a hawk, rendered in a meticulous gongbi (工笔) style, likely dating from the mid-20th century. The brush technique, feather detailing, and stylized realism suggest the influence of traditional bird-and-flower (hua niao) painting, a genre that has long been esteemed in Chinese art. The writing visible on the reverse includes exhibition annotations referencing a work titled “Red Tree” by a Mr. San Shi (三石红树先生), and what appears to be a record of an award or exhibition in 1954, although it is unclear whether these notes refer to the hawk painting or a prior use of the mount.

The front image of the hawk (not shown here but implied by context) would determine the market value more precisely, particularly if a seal or signature is present. Paintings of this type, especially when unsigned or unsigned by lesser-known artists, typically sell in the $150 to $400.
