From the 18th century onwards, 'China pictures' formed a regular part of private trade from Canton to Europe. They were shipped in boxes that could contain as many as 400 individual sheets. This painting is from a set showing botanical subjects. The Chinese caption reads 'fan meigui', meaning 'foreign rose'.
