注脚
明 十六世紀 黑漆螺鈿人物花鳥屜盒For a foliate dish dated to the sixteenth century and decorated with a scene of elegant ladies with attendants in a garden pavilion setting, see James C. Y. Watt and Barbara Brennan Ford, East Asian Lacquer, The Florence and Herbert Irving Collection, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1991, pp.135-136, no. 60. The authors draw attention to the open-work cutting of the ladies dresses (reserve-decorated), suggesting that this may turn out to be one of the technical hallmarks of this period (16th Century).
