AI Overview
The image shows a pair of cinnabar lacquer panels, likely from the early 20th century. These panels are made by applying multiple layers of red lacquer to a base, which is then carved to create intricate designs. The panels often depict figures in landscapes, as seen in this image, and can be part of larger objects like boxes, cabinets, or screens.
Cinnabar refers to the red pigment derived from mercuric sulfide, which gives the lacquer its distinctive color. The carving process reveals different layers of lacquer, creating depth and dimension in the artwork. This technique has been used in Chinese art for centuries, with examples dating back to the Ming and Qing dynasties.
