About this work

Here’s a simple, clear description based on the facts: This drawing shows three scenes in one small sheet. A cow and calf stand beside a Tanka boat. A Macanese woman holds a parasol while her servant stands nearby. The paper is turned sideways to fit all three pictures together. The artist dated it March 24, 1831. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
