Subject: Emperor Asian Scroll
Posted By: shedrick Thu, Mar 08, 2018 IP: 70.187.52.1 What Emperor was this? |
Subject:Re: Emperor Asian Scroll
Posted By: rat Thu, Mar 08, 2018 This is an ancestor portrait featuring a woman rather than a man, dressed in garb befitting the wife of a senior civil servant. The seals include at least one fake seal imitating a Qianlong imperial seal. The picture is probably quite recently made in imitation of late 19th/early 20th century ancestor portraits. However the photographs you posted don't really allow a clear answer. |
