Peep Show: Illustrations of Chinese Dress and Behavior

About This Novel
Since the 18th century, Westerners have been observing China very carefully. They drew a lot of images, took a lot of photos, and brought them back to the West to let Westerners see what China was like. Alexander, the painter who accompanied the Cannes mission, created a large number of paintings reflecting the customs and customs of China at that time during his round trip from Macau to Beijing, which later caused a sensation in Europe. This was the first time that Western painters observed and depicted China in such detail, and it was also the last period in which China was depicted as so magically romantic and exotic. The manuscript collects Alexander's only two works, "Chinese Clothing", "Chinese Clothing and Customs Illustrated Book" and some rare single prints. The two books are published together, which is the first time both at home and abroad.
