ALL THE THINGS YOU WISH FOR YOUR SONS…
Silk embroidery. China, Qing-Dynastie, 17. / 18. Jh.
A dense, funny and amusing work, rich in symbolic details! Two boys stand in the center, one holding a vessel with a rockcrop sprouting out. All the way below, rocks with large flowering peonies. The ancient Wan, symbol of good luck. Further up is a lotus. Two cornucopia in the top-right corner, one with Ruyi-end. Towards the top middle is - the stylization leaves this open to question - a bat? (according to convention and the contours, yes). Slight damages due to age on the lower areas.
SIZE APPROX. 70 x 30 CM
From a private collection
