Hi George,

Indeed a tough one. Partly I am to blame as the pictures are not very clear. Tomorrow I will take better pictures from different angles. The ink is fading a little bit as well.

I am sure I have seen the scene with the two guys before, probably in a painting. Apparently the scene immitates (彷) one Shi Tian something Shan (石田)??

Thanks for the explanation regarding Shandong bottles. That is something new I learnt today.

I am happy you liked the bottle.

Steven,

Although there are no signatures, don't you think the caligraphy was done by different artists?
