    I acquired these paintings from a gentleman who said his friend who was a soldier purchased these in Korea after the Korean war. One features 3 hunters on horseback hunting deer/fowl and the other is perhaps a philosopher who appears to be in deep thought with some writing on the top left. Seems to be an acrylic type of paint on a primitive canvas

    I would love to know if anyone has seen something similar to these I'm curious how rare these are and most of all I would love to know what the writing says I have been staring at these for a long time pondering it's meaning.

    Thank you so much for your help I hope to hear from you

      This is a long shot but I was wondering if you ever found any thing out about these. I believe the material is Ramie, similar to hemp. I have 4 pictures and your hunting picture is one of them. here are my paintings : https://imgur.com/gallery/rt0hk4r
