About the Item
A Japanese silk Fukusa Panel housed in a gilt frame circa late 19th century of Meiji Period. Fukusa is a traditional Japanese textile art used as a wrap for presenting gifts at important occasions. On the deep blue background, the elaborate embroidery work depicts a historical scene where street vendors selling goods to a royal household or an aristocratic residence. The scene focuses on the activities at the front gate where the couriers and servants were busying carrying the goods in. A peasant with straw coat was seen on the stairs delivering a basket. Several other vendors including fishermen and wine sellers.
The main part of the palace like residence was only partially revealed by the large terrace in the clouded garden, leaving space for the imagination of the luxury of the dwell.
