A fine relief panel - ‘The Joy of the Fishermen on the Lake’ China, 19th century 60 x 75 cm (85 x 68,5 cm R.) This magnificently crafted textile and wood relief panel depicts a bustling lake landscape populated by numerous delicately applied fishing boats and fishermen at work. The scenery is framed along the shores by detailed pavilions, wooden bridges, and various figures nestled beneath shading pines and willows. The monumental mountain ranges are masterfully embellished in the prestigious Diancui technique using iridescent blue-turquoise kingfisher and parrot feathers, while the figures and architectural elements are formed from finely painted wood, creating a striking three-dimensional contrast against the deep black velvet ground. In the upper right cover, four three-dimensional characters, carved from wood and gilded: Hu Xu(?) Yu Le (The Joy of Fishermen on the Lake). Set within its origianl, ornately carved hardwood frame with bronze hangers, the reverse with an old inventory label "KP2331". From a private collection in East Germany - Signs of age, some wear, minimal losses to the inlays and minor damaged
