Imperial Court Robe
The "Imperial Court Robe" by an unknown artist is a short-sleeved, knee-length robe made of white satin. The robe features a round neckline and is decorated with intricate dark-colored embroidery. The sleeves and hem of the robe are trimmed with a contrasting dark fabric. The main body of the robe showcases a design featuring dragons, waves, and clouds in a repeating pattern. The dragons appear in various poses throughout the robe. The bottom of the robe has a wavy line design, resembling ocean waves. The robe appears symmetrical, with a central design element on the chest and similar patterns mirrored on either side.
