Compare to a very similar lacquered palanquin from the collection of Kozu Kobunka Museum, Kyoto, sold in Christie's New York, 23 March 2011, lot 816. Also see another sumptuous ceremonial palanquin, created in 1856 for the wedding of the princess Atsuhime, in the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, Boston, under the accession Number S1985.1a-h.
