Fan

Part of the collection: Outfit

Popularization note

The cover of the folded, pleated fan (never attached to the ribs of the frame) is made of white, kid leather decorated with gouache. The decoration consists of three compositions. The central one has an oval view of the Parthenon, with a staffage framed in narrow linear yellow and black frames, and in the corners with a yellow grotesque on a brown background. This central decoration is surrounded by two similar compositions composed of three grotesques each - the middle one coloured on a cream background and two on the sides are white and lilac on a sapphire background, with two braided stripes on a sapphire background and narrow orange lines at the top and bottom. All three compositions from the top and bottom with a black rope, together enclosed in a narrow orange frame.

The described fan cover belongs to the collection of 16 fan covers purchased by the Museum-Zamek in Łańcut; 11 of them, including the ones described, form a cycle decorated with ruins of ancient buildings painted by the same painter.
