The image, dated 1861, depicts a woman gracefully playing the harp, an instrument that was popular in both Chinese and Western music during this time. The harp's elegant strings resonate with the soothing melodies that would have filled the air, transporting the audience to a world of beauty and tranquility. In the foreground, a young child deftly collects payment from a seated audience member, holding out a fan as a sign of gratitude.

This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of Chinese music during the 1860s.
