Xianqi or Xian Qi ? Tseng Hsien-chi / Zeng Xianqi b1919 - d2000?
Date: Ji Mao 己卯 (1819, 1879, 1939, 1999)
11 13⁄16" X 15 ¾ "
Writing on inside of cardboard on back of frame says "back recovered Nov. 25, 1970". It seems possible that either the artist himself, or a former owner noted it on the cardboard when the backing was replaced, perhaps, but I have no way of really ascertaining the validity of that, but it would date this to 1939 if so.
The calligraphy reads 己卯 憲七作, "made by Xiàn Qī, Ji Mao year". The chop stone seal contains the artist's name in seal script. 憲七
