About the painting
This painting is from an album depicting the silk industry. It shows a very important process known as drawing silk filaments. The silk workers place the cocoons in a basin of hot water. They use chopsticks to stir the water and to pick up the loose end of the filament which is passed through the guiding-eye to the reel. They take up filaments from several cocoons together to form a single thread. The number of filaments depends on the quality of the silk required.
