AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Qing Dynasty gouache painting for export, "Picking Tea"
From the mid-18th century to the mid-19th century, a large number of Chinese people who painted Western paintings appeared in Guangzhou. They used the scenery of Chinese society as the subject matter to paint a large number of oil paintings, gouache paintings and watercolor paintings, and sold these paintings as commodities to foreigners who came to Guangzhou, and then flowed to Europe through commercial voyages. This type of painting is collectively referred to as "export painting". Many of the large number of export paintings are based on tea, which truly records the status of the tea trade between China and the West at that time.
