<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Luke89, post: 1266867, member: 12632&quot;]Hi Antiquers, </p><p><br /></p><p>I got this stunning Chinese portraits at the art markets in Amsterdam and I am very curious to know who the artist is,&nbsp; and what year the works we&#039;re wade, and how much they are potentially worth?</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the woman in portrait one is Wu Xetian, and the other I have no clue. Qing dynasty? </p><p><br /></p><p>The material feels like some sort of screen that has very beautiful watercolour or ink applied to it. Maybe it&#039;s silk, I can&#039;t tell, the details are exquisite. The painting is also mounted on a patterned/textured background. You can also see this by zooming in on the picture.</p><p><br /></p><p>The frame is made out of a strong wood that and has four brass things on each side that are I assume decorative, but also give the frame strength (see attachment with pink arrows pointing to what I&#039;m referring to).</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance for helping me identify these beautiful works of art. So happy with this find at the markets <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
