EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Summer Palace of the Emperor, situated opposite the bustling city of Tien-Sing in China. Created in 1817 by an unknown artist and featured as Plate 2 from the Journal of the Proceedings of the Late Embassy to China, this aquatint masterpiece showcases a stunning architectural marvel. The image transports us to a time when boats were a primary mode of transportation along rivers, as we witness several vessels gracefully gliding on the water. The grandeur and intricacy of Chinese architecture are beautifully captured in this print, with its vibrant colors and exquisite detailing. The Summer Palace stands proudly amidst lush greenery, its majestic roof reaching towards the sky. This historical gem offers a glimpse into China's rich cultural heritage and imperial past. People can be seen going about their daily lives outside the palace walls, adding depth and life to this snapshot frozen in time. As we delve into this piece from Clark J. 's Historica Graphica Collection, it becomes evident that it not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insights into geographical features and locations during 19th-century China. It is truly remarkable how art can transport us across centuries and continents.
