This image presents an indoor exhibit, likely within a museum or cultural center, detailing traditional silk production. The setting features a dark-colored display case against a backdrop of an old, exposed brick wall. The central subjects of the exhibit are two large informational panels, numbered "06," providing details on "MARKING-PROCEDURES" (a likely mistranslation of "制作过程," meaning "Production Process"). Each panel features text in both Chinese and English, alongside multiple small photographs illustrating the steps. The left panel, titled "▲洗泥" (Washing mud), shows three photos depicting silhouettes of people engaged in handling and washing large pieces of fabric or silk in water, possibly a river. The text describes cleaning the silk from mud and drying it in weak sunlight to achieve a "black and oily appearance." The right panel, titled "▲排湿" (Absorbing moisture), displays three photographs showing fabrics drying on racks outdoors, a person handling fabric, and a close-up of woven silk. The accompanying text explains a process where silk, after extensive sun exposure, is spread on grass after 6 PM to absorb moisture and soften, a step lasting about 40 minutes. To the right of the informational panels, an artifact is displayed: an old, rustic-looking metal object resembling an antique clothes iron with a spout, possibly used in traditional silk processing. It rests on a textured, dark brown base that appears to be wood or rock, and bears a small, unreadable white label. The display case is illuminated by small, embedded spotlights. The overall scene conveys a historical and educational presentation of traditional craft.
