  • Scroll of satin embroidered in coloured silks, China, 1894 (en)
  • This is a scroll from a set of four which appears to have a connection with the Dowager Empress Cixi (1835–1908) of China. Like the other three scrolls, it has her seal at the centre top. The embroidery shows a red-crested crane and peony flowers, associated with a long life and royalty respectively. All four scrolls are likely to have been embroidered from paintings made by the empress herself and embroidered by court artisans for her all-important 60th birthday. The scrolls might have been distributed as gifts as part of the lavish birthday celebrations. (en)
  • Scroll of buff coloured satin embroidered with coloured silks in long and short, satin and stem stitches. It depicts a crane perched on one leg on a tree stump with flowering peonies below. The scroll is mounted on white figured silk paper as a hanging scroll. (en)
