Chinese Painting Master Pieces of the Mountains and Rivers by Con Shien
unknown: unknown, unknown. Paperback. Large oblong, 10.5x15 inches, string-fastened in traditional manner, covering nineteen numbered b&w plates printed recto only (versos blank), the terminal plate copied color to show stamp impressions in red. Edgeworn with marginal tears ( the largest inch-long). No English-language helps other than bare titles. Find lots of representations of snow, along with the mountains & rivers. Image no. 6 is labeled "The Hermit" but no human appears in the plate. Go figure. As is.
Unimpressive reproductions, but were the publishing history known (we suspect 1930s origin), item might be interesting.
