EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Anhing city in China during the 17th century. The view showcases a bustling scene, with a fortified wall enclosing the city and providing protection. In the foreground, a majestic pagoda stands tall, adding to the picturesque skyline. The river flowing through Anhing is dotted with boats gliding along its waters, while people gather on the banks to observe their surroundings. This engraving has been hand colourised, bringing vibrancy and life to every detail captured by Johan Nieuhof, a Dutch traveler who documented his adventures in China between 1655 and 1657. The image offers a glimpse into an era when transport relied heavily on waterways. Tugboats can be seen maneuvering through the river as they assist larger vessels in navigating their way around this thriving city. Anhing's fortifications are prominently displayed in this print, serving as a reminder of its strategic importance during that time period. The ramparts stand strong against any potential threats that may have loomed beyond its walls. As we admire this historical gem from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to experience Anhing's vibrant atmosphere and witness daily life unfolding within its boundaries.
