- Summary:
-
An album of 12 pith paintings showing a variety of Chinese watercraft. Although naively drawn and out of proportion, these very brightly coloured images are historically interesting in displaying 19th century sailing and other vessels from a floating theatre and several pleasure boats to a dragon boat, ferry, naval patrol boat and a boat used for raising and breeding ducks. Each image is bordered by a bright blue silk ribbon.
