Empress Li (Later Jin)

Her husband bought a throne from the Khitan by calling their khan his father and handing over every mountain pass on the northern frontier.

Painted by Xiang Li in watercolour and crushed gemstone pigment on silk, from The Chinese Empresses — a twelve-year series of 217 portraits. Reproduced as a giclée print on archival 360 gsm poly-cotton canvas, hand-stretched over solid wood with a mirrored wrap, so the whole painting stays on the front face.
