Four-panel leaves, 80″ x 84″ H overall dimension. Vintage collection. Carved on both sides, black lacquer, gold panels with bronze/brown highlights. A crane is considered auspicious in China. ‘Blessed cranes’ are messengers of wisdom. Legendary Taoist sages were transported between heavenly worlds on the backs of cranes. It is one of the symbols of longevity and is often represented with other symbols of long life, such as pine, bamboo, and the tortoise. Landscape imagery is abstract and its beauty shines in golden hues. This is a vintage piece and has normal wear in forms of chips in black lacquer near edges, common on such lacquer screens.
