Floating Chinese temple with altar and musicians, ink drawing
A pen-and-ink drawing shows a multi-tiered temple built on a floating boat, with pavilions, balconies, hanging lanterns and small seated figures, set against hills and trees on the left. Fine parallel hatching and crisp outlines render the water and architecture in a 19th-century Chinese manner.
