Screen, entitled Cherry Blossom Screen, by Caroline Ruth Blair

This hand-painted silk screen in a stained mahogany frame was made by the artist Caroline Ruth Blair in 1982. It is entitled 'Cherry Blossom Screen'.

The two-panelled Japanese-type screen has a design of two cherry trees with pink and white blossoms on a gold coloured background.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
