Sobre este artículo
The London Printing and Publishing Company Limited.. (Circa1860).. Engraving 21.3 x 27.2 cm (sheet), edges darkened, top edge a little ragged, single bloom of discolouration affecting the blank of the image, but otherwise in very good condition. "[The accused] is preceded by a man, who strikes upon a gong, in order to draw upon the offender the notice of the public. Two others walk after him, one of whom is employed in keeping up his face with a bundle of cleft canes. A little red banner is fastened on each side of the culprit, to render him more conspicuous ; and his hands are tied behind his back." [descriptive text from George Henry Mason, "Punishments of China" first published in 1801]
