Customs House Mandarin Boat on seas of China, Painted on silk 19th century

Description

An exceedingly rare and beautiful painting on silk of a Mandarin Boat on the eastern seas of China created in the 19th century by an unknown artist. There are very few of these paintings that are known to exist or survive and those that do are generally in museums like the Getty Museum in Los Angeles who owns some examples in their collection. I am proud to have four of these paintings on silk that were found in an abandoned mansion that belonged to a doctor who built the plantation in the 1880’s. The physician traveled and worked in China during this period. This painting has condition issues where there is missing fragments of silk that are gone. As they were stored in an old steamer trunk found in the attic. But the subject matter is intact and very presentable. You can look for forever and a day and not find another example. Please take a moment to examine the other three examples. All International shipping must go with tracking. I will combine shipping as well to save you money. 7 x 11’ on a 9 x 13’ inch mounted border.
