Woman Embroidering is a 1790 paint by Puqua, a company_painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
A woman sits at a low wooden table, carefully working on a red cloth spread across it. She’s dressed in a light robe with blue trim, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The table holds a few tools—brushes or needles—and the cloth has delicate gold designs on it. The scene looks calm and focused, like a quiet moment of skillful work. The artist, Puqua, painted this around 1790 in Guangzhou, showing everyday life with care. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
