Help identifying artist

My grandpa lived in Japan in the early 90s. His friend, who was allegedly a pretty popular artist, gave this painting to him. Can anyone identify the artist?

Need ID Please

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?

Please Help Identify this Chinese Screen

Please help me identify this four panel screen that depicts the four seasons. I think it is from China, but would like to know the style of embroidery and also the time period.

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)
