Chinese Waterfall Painting

First half of 20th century, ink on silk, no visible signature, a landscape and water summer painting of traditional style with Western influence depicting a tree lined waterfall scene with mountainous background, behind a paper mat in a black painted wooden rectilinear frame. DOA 46 in x 24 5/8 in; SS 33 15/16 in x 18 1/4 in.

From the Collection of Joseph Casole Bampton & Isabel Bampton, Proprietors of The Incurable Collector, Richmond, VA

Most likely a former scroll painting, as portions of a silk mount remain on the top and lower borders of the painting.

There is toning and loss to the silk, and paint loss to the frame.
