This is a good painting for a business man, as eight horses are a sign of success in Chinese culture.
The title is "Ba June Tu", which means, "Eight Beauties Picture". Along with that title, the rest of the Chinese characters includ the artist's signature, a special way to express the year painted (2008) in Chinese characters.
The artist's name is Yan Yong, from near Chengdu, China. He is a good friend of Huang Xin-An (an artist that we buy a lot of artwork from in Chengdu).
This is painted on xuan paper (rice paper) and mounted with a gold silk border at our workshop.
