Two Chinese paintings from a series depicting scenes from events in the three kingdoms with inscription in Manchu and Chinese. Two narrative scenes of events are divided by clouds in time and space. Ink, colour and gold on paper. 19th century. Framed. Visible image c. 43×43 cm. (2)
Likely from the same series as an album leaf at the British Museum. 1983,0604,0.1. Here described as “Album leaf. History. Narrative of events in the Three Kingdoms, with inscription in Chinese and Manchu.”
See also Bonhams sale May 2016 lot 304 with paintings from likely same series. Here a.o. mentioned “The inscriptions in both Manchu and Chinese, as well as the high quality of the painting, suggest that the present lot would have been made for a member of the Manchu nobility which ruled the Qing empire (AD1644–1911)”
One could be trimmed. One with repair. Some wear. Examined in it's frame and no guarantee for hidden defects.
