Description
The theatrical world of opera, with its deep-seated origins in ancient China, serves as the backdrop to this diary cover's inspiration. The history of opera takes us back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907), when the emperor Taizong pioneered an opera school named Liyuan (Pear Garden). Peking Opera, a formative expression of Chinese opera, thrived under the auspices of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911). The cover of this diary mirrors a fragment of a finely embroidered opera skirt from this pivotal era, uniting historical sentiment with artful design.
