EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "Costumes of China: Tiger Guard, Monk, Barber, and Bird Fishermen," is an intriguing glimpse into the rich and diverse cultural heritage of China during the mid-19th century. The image, taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, showcases four distinct figures, each representing various occupations and aspects of Chinese society. In the foreground, a fearsome Tiger Guard stands tall, his imposing shield adorned with intricate tiger designs, and a sword in hand, ready to protect. The Monk, dressed in traditional robes and carrying a ceremonial offering, embodies the spiritual side of Chinese culture. The Merchant, with his deal basket slung over his shoulder, represents the economic backbone of the society. The Traveling Barber, with his mobile barber chair and assortment of tools, offers a glimpse into the daily life and practicality of the Chinese people. In the background, a group of Bird Fishermen are shown in their boat, using cormorants to catch fish, a traditional and sustainable method still used in parts of China today. This lithograph is a testament to the depth and complexity of Chinese culture, providing a window into the various customs, costumes, and occupations that defined the lives of its people during this period. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the handcoloring further enhance the authenticity and beauty of the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of ethnographic or anthropological art.
