仍属馆藏,只是目前没有展出。
This painting is from an album depicting the silk industry. It shows a process known as 'spooling'in which workers wound silk threads rinsed in the river on to a hand-reel. Here you can see a woman drawing and guiding the thread coming from the skein frame with her left hand to check whether the thread has any knots or damage. With her right hand she rotates the hand-reel in a clockwise direction. The result is a thread with a slight twist.
