EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Tea testers among the western Chinese" offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of tea culture in early 20th century China. Created by American School in the 1920s, this print showcases a scene from Charles F Horne's book, The World and its People. In this illustration, we see a group of tea testers immersed in their work. Dressed in traditional attire, these individuals are carefully examining cups of tea with utmost concentration. Their Asian ethnicity reflects the rich cultural heritage of China. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of Asia's tea traditions and highlights the importance placed on quality control during that era. It transports us to a time when tea tasting was not only an art form but also an integral part of daily life for many Chinese people. The use of black and white adds a timeless quality to this image, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic merit. The fine details brought forth through lithography make every aspect come alive - from the intricate patterns on their clothing to the delicate porcelain cups they hold. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how art can transport us across time and space, offering glimpses into different cultures and ways of life. This particular piece serves as a visual testament to China's enduring love affair with tea – one that continues to captivate people around the world today.
