Chinesi

This copperplate engraving offers a European interpretation of Chinese society during the early seventeenth century. Titled “Chinesi,” the print features three Chinese figures in traditional attire, one carrying a parasol and burden pole. Behind them, a landscape scene includes additional figures and stylized representations of daily life. Two Chinese coins are depicted on the left: one labeled as a "bleyerne pfennig" (lead coin) with a value of 12,000 to 16 parts, and another a "kupferne pfennig" (copper coin) valued at 2,000 to 16 parts, illustrating early European interest in Chinese monetary systems.
