This painting shows a scene from China in the 1800s. A person lies on a table while a healer presses their chest with cupped hands. Two others stand nearby, watching. This was an engraving from a travel book called *Viaggio in Cina*. The book had 167 engravings total. The artist made it look real, but it’s really a print. Check out an engraving by Fratelli Treves Editori to see how this printing method works.
This was a Milanese publisher with a knack for turning imported curios into local hits.
