Posted By: Keri Mon, Jul 17, 2017 IP: 47.182.2.222

I am needing help identifying this silk woven art work. I have 4 different pictures but they all have this red square on them.

The Title of the picture:
  五倫圖 (Wu Lun) Five Moral Law Picture
According to the Confucian concept these type of pictures used to symbolize the society, monarch,
father and son,husband and wife etc.in the form of phoenix,cranes,mandarin duckd, orioles etc.
The enlarged seal reads:
湘繍 (Xiangxiu〉 Hunan Embroidery
The translation of the text would need more literary talent.
With reagards,
