This painting is from an album depicting the silk industry. A single silk thread would not be strong enough for weaving, so two or more threads needed to be twisted together to become a yarn. Silk workers then wound these yarns on to bobbins. This painting shows women preparing the warp yarns from 30 or so bobbins.
