Liu Xiren 劉希任 (1906-1967), was from Nanchang in Jiangxi. Since
youth he was fond of painting and by the age of 30 he had already
achieved some fame, particularly for his paintings of figures on porcelain
plaques.
Compare with a set of four famille rose rectangular plaques,
20th century, three with the seals of Liu Xiren, which was sold at
Christie’s New York, 24 March 2011, lot 1828.
