康熙晚期/雍正 御製藍綢繡金龍紋吉服袍後改藏袍Fine Chinese silks--either as bolts of silk yardage or tailored items--were an important aspect of Chinese state diplomacy with Tibet and its other neighbors. Fine woven and embroidered robes originally produced for the imperial household were often re-tailored in Tibet to suit local styles and regional fashions. With a dramatic principle dragon on the front and back of the robe, this early Qing robe also embraces the aesthetics of the Late Ming dynasty.
