This mid-century Chinese embroidered silk artwork from the 1950s is set in a slender, subtly adorned wooden frame with a matte gold finish. The composition depicts two peacocks executed in shades of deep green, teal, brown, and white, their tail feathers richly detailed with metallic gold, orange, and pale blue thread. The scene is completed with pine branches rendered in alternating fresh and yellow-green embroidery, with brown and reddish accents on the branches, while below, blooming peonies in saturated pinks and reds are surrounded by leaves in various greens. In the upper left, black embroidered Chinese calligraphy further amplifies the piece’s cultural resonance and decorative appeal. The ivory-toned silk background is lustrous and smooth, and the embroidery introduces a variety of textures, from high-relief feathers to flat, delicate leaves, creating nuanced interplay of light and shadow. This work embodies characteristic mid-century
