About this work
A seated man in a dark robe and round cap occupies the center of this sepia-toned work, framed by a large circular opening that reveals a hilly landscape with a distant pagoda-like tower. A hanging lantern with tassels, a porcelain vase, and a carved side table furnish the setting. This print by George Chinnery, dated 1774, is titled How Qua, Senior Hong Merchant at Canton, China.
