Early 20th C., later, earlier?
    That paper is so thin and fragile I’m afraid to touch it.

    That laid paper pattern could indicate earlier, but I'm no expert...

    The white faces have been exaggerated by the yellowed paper.

    I see their hands aren't white - i don't think it'd be uncommon for royals to wear powder and even rouge in a given dynasty.
