EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite gouache on paper print depicts a Chinese woman in the act of spinning during the Qianlong Period (1736-96) of the Chinese Empire. The woman is shown in an upright, vertical position, dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, with her long, flowing robes billowing out around her. She holds a distaff in one hand, feeding the thread to the spindle in the other, her expression focused and determined as she works. Spinning was an essential economic activity in China during this period, with textiles and fabrics being a major export industry. The production of silk and other textiles was a significant part of Chinese culture, and spinning was a skill that every woman was expected to learn from a young age. This beautiful artwork is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Qianlong Period, which is known for its refined and elegant style. The use of vibrant colors and intricate detail in the print showcases the skill and artistry of the Chinese artists of the time. This print is now housed in the Bernese Historical Museum in Switzerland, where it is a cherished piece of Asian art. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural exchanges that took place between China and the West during this period, and the enduring influence of Chinese art on global artistic traditions.
