The scene is alive with vibrant colors and bustling energy as the florist showcases his array of beautiful flowers and plants to potential customers passing by.
The engraving beautifully captures the essence of horticulture in ancient China, showcasing the deep connection between nature and culture that has long been celebrated in Asian societies.
