Footnotes
清晚期 紅地緙絲團鶴紋袍
The present lot brings together a rich compound of auspicious motifs. In Ming and Qing official dress, the crane motif was originally used for the rank badges of first-rank civil officials. In civilian dress and women's garments, however, the roundel enclosing a crane was employed primarily as an auspicious symbol, expressing wishes for health, longevity, and good fortune. The Daoist emblems adorning the collar and cuffs are known as the 'Eight Hidden Immortals' (暗八仙 anbaxian), referring to the attributes traditionally associated with the Eight Immortals. As the Eight Immortals themselves are symbolised through their implements rather than being depicted directly, the decoration is hence termed as 'hidden'.
See a similar red-ground woman's robe decorated with crane medallions, 19th century, in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (acc.no.49.32.125). See also a similar woman's -woven silk robe, late 19th century, which was sold at Bonhams San Francisco, 21 June 2011, lot 8244. Compare also with a related embroidered red silk woman's informal robe decorated with crane roundels, late Qing dynasty, which was sold at Christie's New York, 23 March 2018, lot 986.
