| Research Abstract |
We catrried out a research on Chinese paintings and calligraphic works in the collection of the Osaka City Museum, Kyoto National Museum and Tokyo National Museum which are important for the present project. First, we photographed in black and white general view of all the works with 6*4.5 size camera. Next, We took actural size black and white photographs of the seal marks of the artists and collectors on the workd. for easier identification of ink colors, 6*4.5 color photographs and 35mm color slides were also taken when nessesary. An actual-size print of each seal mark in these photographs are paseted on cards and classified by the artists and collectors. Authenticity and dates of each seal marks were also consideres. For more accurate dating and chronology of seal marks, compilation of seals in a much larger scale based on the three-year research is necessaryy. In view of this, the research materials were classified to be documented with computer.
