EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the arrival of the Key-ing, the first Chinese junk to visit Europe, as it docks in the Thames in 1848. The sight of this traditional Chinese boat against the backdrop of London's iconic river is truly mesmerizing.
The Key-ing represents not only a remarkable feat of maritime transport but also symbolizes the growing connections between China and Europe during this period. Its presence on the Thames serves as a reminder of the rich historical ties between these two regions.
The intricate details of the junk's design are beautifully captured in this image, showcasing its unique structure and craftsmanship. From its distinctive sails to its wooden hull, every aspect of the Key-ing exudes authenticity and charm.
As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when global trade and cultural exchange were flourishing. The Key-ing stands as a testament to human ingenuity and exploration, bridging continents and bringing people together.
