Chinese Ancestral Portrait, Gouache on Paper
About the Item
Chinese Ancestral Portrait of a man and woman. Portrait shows a man and a woman, each in patterned and richly colored robes. This Chinese portraiture of family elders, done on gouache paper, features water-based paint that allows for vibrant colors and opacity. The attire is historically accurate and accompanied by symbols of status and virtue.
Ancestral portraits were not just artworks- they were deeply embedded in the cultural, spiritual, and familial fabric of Chinese life. The respect for ancestors and the way it manifested in art shows how Chinese society integrated aesthetics, ethics, and religion into everyday life. Portrait is framed.
