Panel with Lantern and Streamers
Not on view
Perhaps used on the occasion of the Lantern Festival—the fifteenth day of the first lunar month—this tapestry illustrates the seasonal interior design of a wealthy family in the seventeenth century. Celebrated with numerous lanterns lighting up the streets and buildings, this traditional festival extends the auspicious wishes of brightness and joy for the first full moon of the lunar New Year.
