Artist unknown, scroll and parchment are in great condition
12"x4'
Hello,
Hello, this item is a traditional Chinese hanging scroll painting featuring flowering plum blossoms and peonies, rendered in ink and watercolor on parchment or silk. The floral subjects, along with the inclusion of Chinese calligraphy and a red seal mark, are typical of Chinese literati painting, often symbolizing beauty, perseverance, and nobility. The scroll format, use of soft color gradients, and the integration of poetry or artist’s notes suggest that it could date from the late Qing dynasty to the early Republic period (late 19th to early 20th century), though a closer inspection of materials and mounting would be needed for more precise dating.
Given the condition appears to be very good with minimal visible damage, and assuming the work is hand-painted rather than printed, its current market value in the Western decorative art market could range between $200 and $400 USD.
