I found this at an auction and bought it. It’s a very chinese form OF art that combines various kinds OF embroidery along WITH silk painting. IN this CASE, its Koi AND they’re supposed to bring all kinds of bounty to you. I just liked it because its very pretty. The photo here really doesn’t do it justice. AND the Victorians indulged IN something called Chinoisre which IS a fakey kind OF Chinese-y decor so I’m very hopeful that I will be able to work it into our Seampunk decor.
