I’ve had this picture for years but thought it was lost. I know nothing about it other than it seems to be quite old. Can anyone help identify it?

Help identifying
Hey all,
Found this at an estate sale today. It was very, very out of place amongst the Precious Moments homels and portraits of white Jesus.
I have some ideas but they're pretty soft. Anyone have some insight on this piece?
Thanks.

Chinese Reign Mark ID on a Cloisonné Pot
Hi, I have a cloisonné pot with a reign mark on the base. Curious if anyone knows what emperor or date range it is (or is not). Thanks! The link below is to the same mark I found on an antique forum, and the attached photo is from my pot. Chinese cloisonne vase - modern, but marked | Antiques Board (antiquers.com)

A friend of mine gave this to me. Does anyone have any info on it?
I’m not a big art guy but my friend gave me this half of a slab he found at a garage sale. There’s so much I don’t know about this piece of art and I’d like to know more. If anyone knows any info, what’s going on, or where it might be from that would be much appreciated! I wanna learn more about it but don’t know where to start

Inherited a bunch of Chinese art books and wondering if there is any value to them
These books are probably at least 70 years old. My guess is they are just prints of old Chinese paintings but wondering if there is any value because of their age.
Thanks all.
