EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "Costumes of China: Rice-pounder, Beggar, and Puppeteer," is an intriguing glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of China during the early 19th century. The print, taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, showcases three distinct figures, each dressed in traditional attire representative of their respective roles in Chinese society. In the foreground, a rice-pounder is depicted, her strong arms wielding a heavy hammer to crush rice grains in a large wooden mortar. Her traditional conical hat, known as a "doubanzi," shields her from the sun as she works diligently over her bowl. The intricate patterns on her clothing reflect the intricacy and beauty of Chinese textiles. To the right, a beggar sits with a woven basket at his feet, a long stick in hand. His tattered clothing and bare feet are indicative of his impoverished state, while the hopeful expression on his face reveals the resilience of the human spirit. In the background, a puppeteer stands before a makeshift puppet theater, his wooden puppets poised and ready for performance. His elaborate costume, complete with a tall hat and colorful robes, is a testament to the importance of storytelling and entertainment in Chinese culture. This ethnographic image not only provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and customs of China during this time period, but also serves as a reminder of the rich history and diversity that exists within the world's oldest continuous civilization. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this handcolored lithograph make it a beautiful and captivating addition to any collection of historical or anthropological art.
