Description:
|
Album illustrating how imperial China perceived culturally ‘other’ groups. The scenes depicted in this item are various, from the hunting of tigers to wet rice cultivation (or paddy field farming). The non-Chinese of the south-western borderlands (who either called themselves ‘Miao’ or were classified as such by Qing officials) were often depicted in these colourful ‘albums’.
