About this work

George Chinnery drew this 1835 sketch in pencil or ink. It shows a Chinese junk boat from the rear, its small sail draped over the back edge. Another junk floats behind it on calm water. This was made during the Romantic era, when artists loved water and distant places. Chinnery spent years in Macau and India, sketching ships and local life.
