This album leaf is part of a section of the illustrations of costumes from the Qianlong court, Huangchao liqi tushi (“The Regulations for the Ceremonial Paraphernalia of the [Qing] Dynasty”). In total there are 34 folios that depict costumes appropriate for the Empress Dowager or Empress to wear at the imperial court along with short descriptive captions. This is the left leaf of one folio (attached to 2004.19.1.41) depicting the back of a vest. There is a paper label attached to the bottom centre of the piece that reads "Summer Court Dresses/Sea Dragon on red silk". This painting is nearly identical to another leaf found in the album, 2004.19.1.1.38.
Inscriptions and Colophons
Handwritten in pencil on a small piece of paper pasted onto the silk, bottom center: "Summer Court Dresses/Sea Dragon on red silk."
