Silk satin, embroidered with gold and dyed silk threads. Backed with blue silk. This back part of a Daoist dignitary robe consists of once yellow silk and is embroidered with big dragons, dragon medallions and a pagoda in the centre, flanked by two more dragons and a star constellation.
The fragment still keeps the shape of the robe with a rounded bottom seam. Such huge robes were used by Daoist dignitaries when conducting rituals, which were also held at the imperial court of Qing.
Provenance:
- A Dutch private collection.
- The collection of Erich Boltze and Ruth Baroness von Gersdorff. Acquired locally before 1948.
