Subject:Painting on Silk, age?
Posted By: Allison Fri, Nov 17, 2017 IP: 173.200.98.149

This has been on my grandmothers mantle for 60 years, her father was a high ranking official in China and has many collections. Don't know if this is 20th century or older? Any help is appreciated!

Likely 19th century, a very good quality ancestor portrait painted by a professional.

Thank you for your response! We have always wondered, and my grandmother says it looks like her governess she had in China. It is beautiful. Have a wonderful evening!
