Description
“1. Lady and attendant in boat also boatman. 2. two men drinking tea and attendant. 3. small woman selling [astich?] at shop door and two men in shop.” Ink and watercolour illustration showing three scenes, one blending into the next, each one representing traditional cultural events. ❧ The United Presbyterian Church established a field in Manchuria, 1872, when Dr John Ross developed stations running from the port of Newchwang to the state capital of Moukden [Shenyang]. He also made inroads into Korea and translated the New Testament into Korean. ❧ The image is from an album associated with Rev. James A Whylie (1863-1894) who was ordained to the Manchuria mission in 1887 and based in Liaoyang, 1888-1894.
