EDITORS COMMENTS
This drawing depicts a Chinese street flower seller, one of a set of twelve coloured drawings on paper discovered and taken from the forts of Woosung by Lieutenant Henry Eden of the Royal Navy on June 18, 1842. The drawings are estimated to have been at least twenty years old at the time, making them a valuable historical record of Chinese life in the early 19th century. The intricate details of the flower seller's attire, the arrangement of her flowers, and the bustling street scene behind her, all contribute to the authenticity and charm of this beautiful artwork. The drawings were likely created as a form of personal documentation or as a souvenir of Lieutenant Eden's travels in China. They offer a unique glimpse into the daily life and culture of the region during a time of significant historical change. This drawing, in particular, showcases the vibrant and colorful world of Chinese street vendors and their role in the community. The delicate brushwork and use of color further enhance the visual appeal and historical significance of this rare and fascinating artwork.
