In the style of artwork honoring parents, usually in set of Father and Mother. Or might be a representation of the Dowager Empress of China: Cixi (in mid-life). Chinese empress dowager and regent who effectively controlled the Chinese government in the late Qing dynasty for 47 years from 1861 until her death in 1908.
Vintage turn of the century framing, image surface is heavily foxed, but does not reach the central figure. Incredible detail of dragons on the lady's sleeve. Impressive piece. Needing conservation.
