Spring River, Level Distance, after Jiang Shen

Zhu Zhuyun Chinese

Not on view

This fan by the modern painter Zhu Zhuyun gives a sense of how the other fans in this room were originally mounted. The painting is attached to stiff ribs, in this case made of bamboo, which allow the fan to open and close as the paper folds. For the outer covers of this example, the mounter used striking pieces of mottled bamboo native to southern China.
