EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Winter in China" takes us back to a bygone era, showcasing the enchanting beauty of the country during colder months. The engraving, created by Paul Frenzeny in 1900, captures a scene on the Grand Canal where sailing-sledges glide gracefully through the frozen waterway. The image transports us to a time when traditional dress was still prevalent and adds an air of mystique with its depiction of Chinese locals donning their cultural attire. As we gaze at this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the rich heritage and customs that have shaped China's identity. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays every element - from the intricate designs on the sledges to the serene expressions on people's faces. This artwork originally appeared in The Illustrated London News, allowing audiences around the world to catch a glimpse of life in distant lands. As we admire this piece, it serves as a reminder of how art can bridge gaps between cultures and transport us across time and space. It invites us to appreciate not only China's natural landscapes but also its vibrant traditions that continue to thrive today. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable engraving for future generations, ensuring that its beauty endures beyond centuries.
