This is a Chinese painting on pith paper, which turns fragile as it ages; thus the cracking. It looks like some depicting Qing emperors I've seen that dated from the late Qing-Early republic period (first quarter of the 20th century), including the one shown here of the ascension of the Xuantong Emperor, who reigned 1909-1911..

Best regards,

Bill H.
