专家说明

For a similar example in the Victoria and Albert Museum see www.vam.ac.uk museum number 159-1885, which was exhibited in 1883 at the Foreign Exhibition in Boston, Massachusetts and 1884 at the International Health Exhibition in London, from where the Museum purchased it.

The curators note that the surfaces of the cedar wood panels were rubbed down with wet straw and fine sand so as to leave the harder parts of the grain in relief, as in this screen.
