Symbol of elegance and grace, fans
have been used all around the globe
throughout history. Commonly used
as a way to communicate without using words, their creation became an
art form as different materials were
chosen for their construction. Following artistic cultures in various
countries, fans have been used as
mean to not only adorn someone’s
attire, but also decorate different
spaces. Used as a special canvas
to accompany traditional clothing
during festivities, or showcases
someone’s wealth, the art of communicating through use of fans has been
so widespread that it’s been captured in paintings over the centuries.
