DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: This image depicts two military figures in Qing dynasty battle dress. One figure is seated on a folding campaign chair and wears an elaborate blue armour with circular patterns, red accents, and a dramatic banner or flag behind them with blue and red decorative elements. The seated figure appears to be a general or high-ranking military official, with a distinctive headdress and holding a spear. The standing figure wears a simpler purple or mauve-coloured robe and holds a military banner. The painting is executed in the style typical of Chinese export art from around the late 18th or early 19th century, with careful attention to details in the military regalia and equipment. The style combines Chinese painting techniques with elements designed to appeal to Western tastes, particularly in the detailed rendering of the figures' armour, weapons, and military accessories. Previously described as "warrior".
