      The piece in the oft-misused picture is a late 20c textile product from a traditional family weaving workshop in Tokyo. It's based on the famous 7th-c weft-faced Sogdian banner in Horyuji Temple, Nara, but done in warp-faced weave with much simplified &downsized roundel patterns.https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/882720100608036864 …

      That this was included as one of the few color plates in Hayashi Ryoichi's book on the Shōsōin (and labeled correctly nevertheless) may have helped perpetuate the misattribution.

      Thank you both, very useful! Interesting that it passed through Sino-Platonic Papers without being picked up! :)

          The same mistake was also made by some top scholars on the Silk Road in China. I guess we should all blame the superb quality of the Japanese reproduction that got them misled 😁
