EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting Buddhist monastery of Yuen-Fu on the Min River, located south of Fuchu-Fu in China. Created by artist Armand Kohl in the late 19th century, this illustration showcases a hidden gem nestled within a cave, surrounded by majestic cliffs and lush vegetation. The intricate details captured in this monochrome masterpiece allow us to appreciate the serene beauty of this sacred place. The towering cliffs serve as a natural fortress, protecting the monastery from worldly distractions while providing an awe-inspiring backdrop for spiritual contemplation. A series of steps lead up to the entrance of the cave, inviting visitors on a journey towards enlightenment. The presence of trees and plants further enhances the tranquility of this setting, creating an atmosphere conducive to meditation and introspection. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded not only of China's geographical wonders but also its rich religious heritage. Buddhism has flourished here for centuries, with monasteries like Yuen-Fu serving as havens for devoted practitioners seeking enlightenment and inner peace. Armand Kohl's skillful rendering allows us to experience a glimpse into another time and place—a testament to his talent as an artist. This print serves as both a visual delight and a historical document that captures the essence of Chinese culture during the 19th century. Through this artwork, we can immerse ourselves in the serenity and spirituality that emanates from Yuen-Fu Monastery—a true treasure
