This engraving from 1850 showcases a traditional Chinese Junk with a sternpost rudder, providing a glimpse into the ancient sailing ship design of China. The intricate details of the vessel are beautifully captured in this artwork, highlighting the craftsmanship and engineering skills of the time. The Chinese Junk was an important mode of transportation in Asia, used for both passenger and cargo transport.
