A 19th Century Chinese Ancestors painting showing a Mandarin in full costume, his wife, and what looks like their daughter.

The painting was done circa 1880 and is a gouache (a thicker type of watercolor) with a wealth of exquisite details.

The robes are magnificent! All embroideries, jewelry and ornaments are rendered hyper-realistically.

The colors are incredibly vibrant, the typical QIng Dynasty dark blue, vivid pinks, vermilion red, cream and a fresh green.

Both ladies have of course bound feet!
