<p>I have 2 art sketches my grandfather brought home from WW2. I think the signature is Chinese and would like to know if this is true and what it says. I’d be  grateful for any help. <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/FBz8w.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/FBz8w.jpg" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>

Many thanks. Is it a signature or name of a place ?

The name of a painting is never put on a seal. I am sure 靜湖 is the  author's name
