Sobre este artículo
Canton: SunQua, 1870. Silk covered boards. Otherwise very good condition. This album bears the red stamp of Sunqua, with border & stars. The nobility include the Emperor and Empress, who are followed by the nobility, men and their women. The painting is particularly fine, with intricate robes and portraits. The National Library of Australia in their collection holds a similar but later rendition of this album where they identify the individual paintings.
Small folio silk patterned album (14 x 10 1/4") complete with the original silk ties. The green silk is decorated in daisy & vine floral pattern, which is typical of many SunQua albums. Leaves mounted with pale turquoise silk ribbon to paper leaves, with some images floating and no longer within the borders. There are some cracks in the pith paintings, none however affecting the image themselves. Western binding, opening from the right, lightly rubbed on corners & foredge, very good overall.
