EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th-century colour lithograph captures the traditional practice of roasting tea in China, a centuries-old ritual that continues to this day. The image depicts Chinese workers carefully tending to large pots over an open flame, expertly roasting the tea leaves to perfection.
The intricate details of the scene transport us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand the artistry and precision involved in producing one of China's most beloved beverages. The vibrant colours used in the lithograph bring warmth and life to the depiction, evoking a sense of heat and energy as the tea leaves sizzle and crackle over the fire.
As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions that have shaped China's agricultural practices for generations. The architecture in the background hints at a rural setting, where farming and trade intersect seamlessly to create a harmonious way of life.
Through this artwork, we gain insight into not just how tea is made but also into the essence of Chinese culture itself. It serves as a visual reminder of our interconnectedness with nature and each other, highlighting the beauty found in everyday tasks like roasting tea.
