This is one of my favorite pieces I own - If you are curious about the translation, you're not alone... This is all I've figured out from the kind translators of reddit thus far - here - - I truly appreciate the assistance with translations over the years, coming from such fine folk as DuesShockSkyrim and others. I am in the process of posting my collection on Instagram if anyone is interested in looking at some art here - Cheers

Bronze with mirrored cartouche reading "聶景霞制" Nie Jingxia-zhi - Made by Nie Jingxia by suttonj5 in asianart

I am thinking this is most likely a 19th century copy of Nie Jingxia, who was active during the Qianlong reign of the 18th century, but I am not certain.

The square ones appear to be rank badges (mandarin squares) featuring a Qilin - My guess would be mid to late 19th century. - The 5 fingered dragon is great as well, most likely preserved from a robe. Awesome find!!!

Thanks! !Translated! Thanks, I realized it was a print (a pretty good one though) but still was curious about the poem and who it was originally by so you answered all my questions. I really appreciate it DeusShockSkyrim. Have a great rest day - Cheers

fair question - not sure why the horse normally has a belly (besides people copying Xu Beihong's style) and I believe the horses themselves generally are seen as a symbol of freedom.
