The central design of this embroidered canopy strongly resembles a relief carving (see ill.) from a Daoist temple (founded 1316) in the Yuan capital of Dadu. Showing the revitalizing influence of Central Asia, these powerful phoenixes, in an innovative Yuan-dynasty pairing, are in stark contrast to the gentle birds of the Song period. At the corners of the canopy, vases bearing floral scrolls evoke a pattern that originated in India and was transmitted to China via Nepal and Tibet.The canopy's workmanship is exquisite: extremely delicate floral embroidery in silk contrasts with the nearly sculptural birds and vases couched in thick gold threads.
