Thanks Rube!

Its always fun to have deeper discussion while we are not fully agree with each other.

I am including some Zhang baotian bottle here, one is Zhang's bottle ,but false signed Zhou leyuan .zhang's calligraphy is not the same level as Zhou Leyan's as we can tell.

Regarding the painting damages, I would think its because of the snuff. I do have some of bottles have been used but with the fine painting condition, but some of snuff is mixed with herb and Essential oils which might damage the painting, while the painting be contact with oil, the paint might be Dissolved.

Best,

Steven
