This is a drawing by George Chinnery. It shows two Chinese blacksmiths working at their anvil. They hold heavy hammers. A small furnace smokes beside them. The artist sketched extra details too. You’ll spot a chain and big sledgehammers. A hat hangs on the wall, and a teapot sits on the window ledge. On the back is a quick sketch of a Chinese porter. Look up George Chinnery next.
