      She is beautiful!
      Language is Chinese, Mandarin I think.
      Maybe your local Chinese community can help?

      Yes, Chinese. There is an identification group in Facebook that will translate. It a memorial portrait. It's Ivory and gold, too. There are MANY Chimses collecting pages/groups on Facebook that are very helpful. Try this group:
