London: John Harris, 1748. unbound. Woodcut. Image measures 6" X 8". This charming view of a large street in China was published in 1748 by John Harris. The view features a large street somewhere in China, lined with shops, suggesting how their signs are placed and shops disposed. People on horseback and on foot are seen throughout. This view appeared in "Navigantium atque Itinerantium Bibliotheca" or, "A complete collection of Voyages and Travels", an account of Harris travels in the mid-18th century. The compilation contained 'whatever has been observed worthy of notice'. In good condition with minor foxing. This is a beautiful snapshot of China from that period.
