Story One Hundred and Eleven · Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio

The Myna Bird

A line drawing in the manner of a late-Qing lithographed edition: in the paved courtyard of a prince's palace by day, a stout bearded prince and two eunuchs stand looking up in amused astonishment, one pointing at a black myna bird spreading its wings on the ridge of the great hall's roof, with an empty open birdcage on a table at the left, a basin of water on a stand at the right, and an old pine and garden rock behind.
