Hi All

Has  anyone  ever  heard  of  these  two  middle  period IP   artists?

1.  Liu Quan   刘  泉   (Green Lotus Studio * )

2.  Xue Zhongwen  薛 仲 文

If  anyone   has  heard  of them  (  and better  still  has any  pics of their  bottles)  please  reply  via the  Forum  (and  also   by  private  email   if attaching  hi-resolution  pics)

Cheers

Peter

*Any  info  on the  Green Lotus  Studio  itself  would  also be  useful .

Hi Peter,

I happened to bid on a Xue zhongwen bottle a while back, but I didn't win it, and didn't save the auction link, I will try to see if I can find the link for you.

I never heard about Liu Quan tho.

Dear Peter,
    I'm totally in the dark. I've never heard of them.
Sorry,
Shabbat Shalom,

If someone happens to have an old Bonhams auction catalog from 2004. There was a Xue Zhongwen bottle included in this lot.. All the pictures for the online catalog have been deleted.

http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/13004/lot/4258/

Not able to find anything else for him Peter, and can find nothing at all for Liu Quan..

Peter -

I just posted a bottle signed (I think) by Xue Zhongwen, What do you know about him?

PS Finishing V5 then ready to work on your bottles.

Thanks Bill,

Yes, I was watching the bottle,  So glad that you won it.

I think that your date is about right, late 19th. the painting is very nice , the calligraphy is wonderful as well. not sure why he is not as well known as others.
