Lovely rubbing on rice paper of an ox pulling a tea cart. The colors are vibrant. It has an ivory silk mat. The image measures 16 inches by 12.5 inches. A wonderful chinoiserie accent piece. Chinoiserie first gained popularity in Europe in the 18th century. Europeans had a fascination with Asia due to their increased, but still restricted, access to new cultures through expanded trade with East Asia, especially China. The 'China' indicated in the term 'chinoiserie' represented in European people's mind a wider region of the globe that could embrace China itself, but also Japan, Korea, South-East Asia, India or even Persia.
