Ready to hang Ancestor worship has been a vital practice in Chinese culture for centuries. During the Imperial eras, it was considered a sacred familial duty to honor the spirits of departed ancestors. Ancestor paintings, like these, were highly treasured objects in the home. This pair of ancestor paintings showcases a nobleman and his wife from the Qing Dynasty. The nobleman's high rank is indicated by the white crane mandarin square on his yellow robe, symbolizing longevity and wisdom. This emblem denoted him as the highest-ranking civil officer in the Qing court. The nobleman's wife is also portrayed wearing a matching robe and mandarin badge, signifying her husband's rank. In domestic settings, the left-hand seat was the seat of honor and reserved for the husband; in social settings, the wife was to flank her husband's right. Both portraits are elegantly framed in distressed black wooden frames, with front glass panels to protect them from dust and scratches. They come equipped with matching brass hanging hardware for easy display.
