Art Print Hong Kong

Reproduction of a 19th-century oil painting on canvas, by an unknown artist of Chinese origin. Part of the collection of the Maritime Museum, this work is a magnificent example of the artistic movement known as China Trade, now available in an exclusive art edition.

China Trade Painting flourished throughout the 19th century to satisfy the fascinated Western demand for visual records of the Far East. These landscapes meticulously captured the trade ports, factories, rivers, and ships that crossed Eastern waters. Sublimely merging Chinese aesthetic sensibility with European oil painting techniques, these works served as prestigious travel memories for sailors and merchants who sailed the China Sea.
