Originating from China, Coromandel screens typically depict scenes of daily life. This six-panel piece features a letter written by Jaime Zobel de Ayala in celebration of Ayala’s 180th anniversary and published in the book, Inside Ayala (2014). It is surrounded by a collage of images depicting the company’s history, including business developments and employees at milestone events. The collage and the letter from the chairman emeritus bridge the company’s past and its future.
