    So I know this is a watercolor with the famous erotic love poem Chun Xiao (
    春晓 "Spring Dawn," by the Tang Dynasty poet, Meng Haoran (#232 of 300 Tang Poems). What I don't know is what the red seals/stamps signify. I'm guessing one is the artist's seal and the other was an owner's. If that's the case, I'd love to know who both are or were. Also, I'm guessing the trees are pomegranates and the bird a heron or crane. BTW, since I'm obsessed with this site, I figured I may as well have some fun in here and get creative with my titles.
