DESCRIPTION
Fan "Thousand faces". China, Qing Dynasty, late nineteenth century-early twentieth century.
Carved wood carving.
Paper country, bone faces, silk dresses.
Presents flaws in the paper.
Needs restoration.
It has slight flaws in the fan.
Measurements: 36 x 68 cm (fan); 50 x 85 cm (fan holder).
This type of fans, so called because of the application of small plates of ivory or bone for the faces, are characterized by the paper country, painted by hand and with meticulous applications of silk scraps to represent the costumes. The lively scenes are set in gardens, inspired by the palace life of the ancient Chinese court.
