Anyone know Chinese silk scroll paintings?
A friend bought this from an elderly Chinese woman's garage sale years ago. Trying to figure out if it has any value.

If only that was all on the back pocket of a pair of jeans! You could retire!
It's all speculation until Tabs weighs in.

It's very well done, but probably not worth a whole lot unless the artist is someone of note. Mrs. Lee's grandmother was a Long March veteran and painted several similar paintings for us, which we hang in our house. I doubt they're worth anything, but I look at them every day and think of the time I spent hanging with her in her special nursing home for the party elite. That woman had been there, done that and that's what those paintings mean to me.

Rick - can she translate the name? I see artists listed on eBay, but with English/phonetic pronunciations.
