Description: A rare original large eight person Chinese ancestral painting showing multiple generations of a family as a way to honor the past ancestors. Ancestral paintings were a cherished piece of art to celebrate the family lineage of affluent households. Age is often determined by the headdress of the figures. This piece dates to the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) with all figures adorned in kimono style attire with cranes, a symbol of fortune. Exports of original ancestral paintings are now banned in China to preserve the cultural history that they represent. 

Artist: Unknown stamp. 

Condition: The large and heavy painting is applied to the backboard and shows craquelure across the entire image. Staining along the original border tape and a soot like darkness to the painting itself. Material is brittle and cleaning by a skilled professional is recommended. The display is glass and is in excellent condition. The frame is solid wood with some marks that are deeper than the stain. This is a large and heavy (32 lbs) artwork. Anchored mounts are highly recommended.

Provenance: This piece was purchased from a charitable organization in Lacey, Washington. No prior ownership is known.


Condition: Good used condition - See description for detail
Measurements: Framed - 40 x 28 x 2
