The author of this group of illustrators is Thomas Amoy, who was born in 1804 in Britain and later became one of the top British architects. In the 1830s, he went to Syria, Palestine and other Western Asian countries and created hundreds of paintings rich in rich oriental customs

However, he has never been to China. This group of illustrations was published in 1843. It was created by him according to the previous paintings of others and referring to the relevant words, giving play to his imagination and creativity. Therefore, there are many Western elements in this group of paintings that do not conform to the Chinese tradition

This may also be the imagination of many Westerners about the ancient oriental country at that time. In addition, the painting is highly skilled and the pictures are exquisite. Therefore, this group of paintings was popular after they were published. Xiao Bian will distribute more than 100 paintings one after another for everyone to enjoy and criticize

The first group of 20 pictures was released today, mainly about the scenes of Beijing and the imperial city in the Qing Dynasty, the images of dignitaries and nobles, and their residences. Welcome to view them
