Antique Chinese Silk Embroidered Panel 122x83cm
Description
An elegant and large-scale antique Chinese silk panel featuring a detailed "Crane and Lotus" pond scene. This piece is rendered in a stunning monochrome ivory palette, where the design is created through the direction of the silk stitches and subtle variations in thread sheen. The imagery—featuring a crane (symbol of longevity) amidst lotus flowers and reeds—is a classic motif of peace and purity in Chinese art.
