19th Century Chinese Export Pith Rice Paper Painting Warrior In Hanging Mirror

About the Item

A mid 19th Century circa 1850's Chinese Export rice paper pith painting set within an arched cut out mirror that hangs on the wall from a chain. The painting depicts a Chinese warrior seated in an antique Chinese folding chair of the type generally used by travelers. The warrior is depicted holding a bow. He is attended by a young man who has the word for Courageous or Brave on the back of his tunic. Both figures hold a pennant shaped flag with an image of a blue flower (?). There is an ornate rug with an all over trellis design in blue accentuated by pink and white flowers. The painting is of an arched form and fits into the arched mirror - it appears to have slipped slightly and I have not examined it out of the frame / mirror.
