A Large Pair of Yellow Ground Gold Thread 'Dragon' Embroidery Silk Panels
18TH-19TH CENTURY
each finely embroidered with central five-clawed lateral-reaching dragons, the confronting faces of which are expressively illustrated with satin stitched gradient salmon, blue, and silver toned silk floss accentuated by outline in heavy black thread extending the along sinuous spines turning bodies composed of gold metal wrapped salmon silk evenly laid and couched by white threads in shell patterns to resemble flickering scales; each surrounded by bats, clouds, and auspicious objects in the same palette of satin stitched silk floss and metallic gold wrapped thread, all against a ground woven of assumed warp-facing lozenge ground twill.
Height 50 1/2 x width 62 in., 128.3 x 157.5 cm.
