"Fan" is a delicate, hand-painted fan by French artist Edouard Moreau, dating from 1855-1865. Now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, it is a fine example of 19th-century craftsmanship. The fan's ivory sticks are intricately carved and gilded, and the painted panels depict scenes of elegant figures in 18th-century dress, creating a charming and intricate visual. The fan's delicate design and intricate details highlight the popularity of such accessories in the 19th century.
