DescriptionThis information is from the collections inventory of Anne Shih. This panel may or may not be made by the Miao culture. The design motifs and use of silk suggest a Han Chinese influence. The colors of the threads appear to indicate the use of synthetic dyes, which also implies that this panel was made mid to late 20th century.
