About this work

This fan is packed with tiny details. Two figures stand in a garden, dressed in shiny, gold-patterned clothes. One holds a lute, the other a staff with a pink feather. Trees and bushes fill the background, painted in soft greens and browns. The fan’s edges are covered in gold thread and tiny beads, making it look fancy. The scene feels lively, like a quiet moment turned into something special. Want to know more? Check out hand fan designs from the same era.
