EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Chinese history, showcasing "The Emperor of China with a plough". Painted by Christian Bernhard Rode in 1773, this neoclassical masterpiece portrays the emperor himself ploughing the first furrow to pay homage to agriculture. The scene is set amidst a vast field in Germany, symbolizing the connection between nature and humanity. In this ceremonial act, the emperor holds an umbrella overhead, representing his protection and care for his people. The painting exudes hope and tradition as it depicts the importance of farming and country life. With a team of oxen leading the way, this fresh start signifies new beginnings and prosperity for all. Rode's attention to detail is evident through his use of vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes. This oil on canvas artwork beautifully combines elements of folklore, mythology, allegory, and literature to create a visually stunning composition. Displayed at Staatliche Museen in Berlin today, this fine art piece continues to inspire viewers with its rich cultural significance. It serves as a reminder of China's deep-rooted reverence for land cultivation while also highlighting the universal importance of agriculture across different nations.
