EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving captures a scene high on a mountain in China, where monkeys are diligently gathering leaves from tea bushes and delivering them to their master. The intricate details of the artwork, created by Andrea Freschi after Antoine Cardon, showcase the beauty of this ancient tradition.
In this illustration from Henri-Leonard-Jean-Baptiste Bertin and Jean Baptiste Joseph Breton's "China, Its Costumes, Arts, Manufactures," we see the skilled monkeys working alongside their human counterpart in perfect harmony. The trained monkeys carefully select the finest tea leaves while perched on the lush green bushes, showcasing their intelligence and agility.
The majestic landscape of the mountain serves as a stunning backdrop to this unique moment captured in time. The vibrant colors used in this handcoloured print bring life to each element of the composition, from the intricate costumes worn by the figures to the delicate tea leaves being collected.
This enchanting image not only highlights the artistry of Andrea Freschi and Antoine Cardon but also offers a glimpse into a fascinating aspect of Chinese culture and craftsmanship. It is a testament to the rich history and traditions that have shaped China's renowned tea industry for centuries.
