Description

AN ANCESTOR PORTRAIT OF A COURT LADY, 19TH CENTURY

China. Ink, gouache, and gilt on paper. The lady dressed in a splendidly decorated gown is identified as the wife of an imperial civil servant of the 4th rank by the square civil servant badge with a wild goose on the front of her stole. She wears an elaborate headdress suspending beaded tassels and a luxurious tiger pelt is laid over her wooden chair.

Provenance: English trade. European private collection, acquired from the above.
Condition: Good condition with minor wear, little creasing, light soiling, some areas with minor fading to colors, touchups. The frame with few nicks and scratches.

Dimensions: Image size 101.5 x 56 cm, Size incl. frame 110.5 x 64.2 cm

Framed behind glass.

The dragon motif on the red robe and stole represent the imperial house in whose service the consort was employed. The restriction to four dragon claws shows that she was not one of those directly employed at court who were permitted to use decorations with five-clawed dragons, as was otherwise only the case for the emperor himself.

Literature comparison:
Compare a related ancestor portrait of a Mandarin lady, dated c. 1900, in the Museum Angewandte Kunst, Frankfurt, inventory number 16150.
