Description : Hi, I corresponded with you awhile back regarding watercolors in my collection by M. Matsu. Since then, I have also picked up one by S. Nimi in an consignment shop a few blocks from my home. Not bad for being in the middle of the corn fields in Bloomington, IL. Recently, I bought an oil painting by Kajiwara Kango that has an inscription on the back. I was wondering if you might know someone who could translate it for me? Images of all of these paintings are on my art collection web site at http://www.kevindaniel.250x.com/other.html. Thanks and Best Regards, Kevin xxxxxxxx On Thu, 2009-11-05 at 09:03 +0900, Ross Walker wrote: > Hello Kevin, > > It is dated May 1949, and signed "梶原貫五" (Kajiwara Kongo).
