Need help identifying this!

Question

I received this awhile back and can't find any information.. please help with the signature and stamp

Answer 1

The "signature" is two Chinese characters, '亜农'.

The first (top) character is unclear, it should be '亜'

亜 (yà) = which means 'Asian' or 'second'

The second (bottom) character is '农'

农 (nóng) = which means 'agriculture' or 'farmer'

The red stamp word is '林', a character in a form of Seal script (篆体) which is an ancient style of writing Chinese characters.

林 (lín) = which means 'forest' or 'wood'

But here the character '林' may only means the author surname or we called as family name.
