New art rescued from the thrift store
I was on the hunt for some art at my local thrift store and saw this and immediately took it up front and took it home. It’s beautiful and I am keeping it but I want to know more about it. I’ve used google lens and it pulled up similar enough items for me to conclude this is likely a 20th century gouache water color painting on cork of either Chinese or Japanese origin. I posted in r/japanart first to see what they thought and someone suggested the signature says “senryū” any additional information would be greatly appreciated!

Who painted this?
Between 20 and 30 years ago, my girlfriend at the time came back from China with this painting. She said it was by a "famous artist" but if she told me the name of the artist, I certainly don't remember now. Can someone tell me anything about this painting and the artist? What is the text?

Can anyone tell me more about this collection of Giuseppe Castiglione - Lang Shining prints?
Figured out the artist with Google translate. Heavy, textured, somewhat shiny paper. Likely vintage tourist purchase. Full album: https://imgur.com/a/76WkOpG Thank you!
