Chinese School, "Various Birds and Insect Specifies in Tree," early 20th c., silk thread on silk, presented in a black frame, H.- 17 1/2 in., W.- 15 1/2 in., Framed H.- 15 1/4 in., W.- 17 3/8 in.

There is one area at the very top middle of the silk that has a grey ink stain. If you are looking at the piece flat, you are able to see where the very top has slightly detached from frame on the top proper right. The fabric around the borders shows indents, but the fabric is not damaged, it is just how it was mounted for the framing (see photos from reference). The top proper left corner has a horizontal line, almost like it had been previously framed. There are tiny flecks of dirt on the tail of the rooster (proper left side) and on the border to the proper right side. There is speck of dirt inside of the glass, on wing of cockatiel parrot. This is beautiful embroidery. __________________________________________________________________________ ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD "AS IS."
