EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CHINA: MANDARINs HOME" takes us back to a lavish dinner party in the heart of China during the mid-19th century. The steel engraving, created by English artist Thomas Allom in 1843, beautifully captures the opulence and grandeur of a mandarin's home. The scene unfolds within an exquisitely decorated dining room adorned with intricate chandeliers and ornate vases. A long table is elegantly set, showcasing fine china and delicate trays filled with delectable dishes. Seated around the table are distinguished men dressed in traditional Chinese robes, their hats adding an air of sophistication to the gathering. In this snapshot of daily life among China's upper class, we witness a musician playing soothing melodies on his instrument while servants attend to every need. The guests engage in lively conversation as they skillfully use chopsticks to savor each bite. This enchanting image offers us a glimpse into the world of civil servants during the Ching Dynasty, where refinement and elegance were paramount. It serves as a testament to both cultural heritage and artistic mastery. As part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, this historical piece transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also gain insight into China's rich history and social customs.
