Lot no. 87
A pair of mosquito nets in Chinese embroidery. This image shows a traditional Chinese textile or mosquito net, framed by a light brown or beige border. The tapestry is divided into several rectangular panels, each depicting different scenes and motifs. The upper sections show scenes of figures in landscapes, "hunting scenes". Some of the figures ride horses or interact with each other in mountainous, nature-inspired settings. The lower sections feature floral and botanical motifs, including blossoming flowers, branches and ornamental vases, arranged elegantly and symmetrically. The golden embroidery and intricate designs underline the craftsmanship and cultural aesthetic typical of traditional Chinese textiles. 18th/19th century. D: 205x80 cm. A little damaged.
