Qing Dynasty Late 19th Century Chinese Ancestral Portrait of a Seated Woman
About the Item
A beautifully painted Ancestral Painting from the Qing Dynasty period, late 19th Century.
The genre of ancestor paintings, first seen in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644), embodies the Confucian ideal of veneration of authority figures in all realms of life, including the family. Celebration of deceased family members was a part of Chinese culture as far back as the Bronze Age.
The painting is very well done and the subject is wonderful - the wardrobe and the pensive look on her face is special. Framed in a wooden frame. The pieces is mounted on wood.
A compliment to many spaces, from traditional to Modern.

- Qing Dynasty 19th Century Ancestral Group Painting on Hand Painted ParchmentLocated in Yonkers, NYA Chinese Qing Dynasty period painting from the 19th century of an ancestral group portrait in custom frame. Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Chinese history with this Qing Dynasty period painting, an ancestral group portrait from the 19th century that masterfully captures the essence of traditional Chinese society and family hierarchy. This vertical painting, housed in a custom composition wood frame with plexiglass, is a testament to the time-honored artistry of Qing Dynasty artists. Crafted on parchment paper, the painting displays generations of ancestors in a systematic, frontal arrangement. The chromatic spectrum of their robes - blues, reds, greens, golds, blacks, and oranges - adds vibrant depth to the ancestral tribute. Civil officials are distinguished by bird-adorned buzi, an emblem of their rank. In line with tradition, the portrait hierarchy descends from top to bottom - the older generation presides at the top, followed by subsequent generations. The men are positioned on the right, the women on the left, reflecting the societal norms of the period. Bordering the parchment, a silk frame contributes an elegant finish. Display this painting above a credenza, console table, or enfilade, and it promises to enhance any interior space with its captivating allure and cultural resonance.
