Then, is all paintings about royal life drawn by royal painting academy? In fact the answer is no. Etiquette and many details of antique offers us clues of its origin. The author consider that although Celebrating a Birthday’s subject is on royal issue, many details in it does not match the royal etiquette and therefore it is not from royal painting academy or official who participated in such dinner party, but a nongovernmental piece.
