扇面五幅 清ProvenanceJarmila Novotna (1907-1994)來源Jarmila Novotna (1907-1994)This set of fans was gifted to Jarmila Novotna (1907-1994) by Frances Stokes Clark Weekes, who was the widow of the football hero and stockbroker Harold H Weekes (1880-1950). Ms. Notvotna and her family rented Mrs. Weekes's home in the early 1950s where the fans hung in the master bedroom. Mrs. Weekes later made a present of them as an expression of friendship and admiration for Ms. Novotna's talents as an opera star and actress. The fans have remained with Ms. Novotna's family ever since.
