🔍 PROVENANCE / MAKER NOTES
While the artist’s identity remains to be confirmed, the piece includes an ink signature in Chinese calligraphy and a red artist’s seal, suggesting an individual or studio practicing in the classical tradition of shan shui painting. The composition follows symbolic conventions — with the central pagoda representing enlightenment, trees and water conveying harmony, and mountains in the distance symbolizing permanence.
The mounting is consistent with mid-20th century formats used in Chinese export art or formal scroll presentation. The silk brocade frame, featuring a floral motif, complements the gentle tones of the painting and enhances its decorative value.

Ideal for those who value symbolism, technique, and cultural story.
