Start with the reading

楊履乾

Read 楊 as the surname and 履乾 as the given name. On the same catalogue page, entry 42 uses different wording: 彩霞監製 explicitly refers to supervising production. Entry 41 gives a name alone. This difference matters when looking at the slip-painted landscape and asking who painted it. [1]

A documented vessel

C81.339 has a landscape painted in clay slip. The catalogue dates the vessel to the late eighteenth century and reproduces the impression separately. [1]

How far the evidence goes

The caption records the seal reading. It gives neither the position of the stamp nor a separate attribution for the landscape painting. [1]
