Stunning Chinese scroll painting titled 'Court Ladies Wearing Flowered Headdresses' by the renowned Tang Dynasty artist Zhou Fang (ca. 730–800). This exquisite artwork captures the elegance of court life during China's prosperous Tang Dynasty (618–907), a period of flourishing high culture.

The painting portrays five court ladies and a maidservant, with delicate details of their interactions, including one lady teasing a dog and another admiring a red flower as a crane walks by. Zhou Fang was a master of depicting feminine beauty, and this piece is a rare glimpse into both the portraiture and fashion of the time, highlighting the ephemeral nature of youth.
