Pierced scrollwork runs below, and the grasscloth ground shows through the openwork. We read it as Chinese, likely Late Qing, from the carving style and the red and gilt finish.

The irregular shape is part of the charm: the silhouette steps in and out like a roofline, so the panel looks cut from a larger scheme. At 13 by 17 inches framed, it fits on a narrow wall, over a lamp table or beside a doorway. The gilt shadow box frame gives it depth and a clean edge.
