This engraving titled "The International Fisheries Exhibition, The Chinese Court" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the rich history of China. The image showcases an intricately designed Chinese court filled with fascinating elements that depict the country's fishing traditions. In this bustling scene, we see various aspects of Chinese culture intertwined with their deep connection to the sea. Fishing boats dotting the River Yangtze are depicted in great detail, highlighting different types such as dip nets and ice houses.
