"Imperial Edict" is a long, narrow textile banner created by a Manchu artist in China between 1879 and 1911. The banner is divided into sections with contrasting colored backgrounds, including blue, white, yellow, and red. It is decorated with silver script, possibly detailing the text of the edict. This textile banner is currently on display at the Art Institute of Chicago.
