About This Piece
An imperial lady appears beside a bathing vessel within a straight-sided narrative panel. Hanging and architectural details fill the upper field, while curved foreground lines guide attention to the central figure.
Carving details and what to examine
Compare the outer profile in the full view with the smaller carved details in the close-ups. An angled view helps separate changes in surface depth from differences caused by lighting. Photographs are useful for studying the composition, but do not establish the maker, the tools used or a workmanship grade.
