Story One Hundred and Eighty-Two · Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio

Jin Yongnian

A line drawing in the manner of a late-Qing lithographed edition: early morning in a plain brick-floored room of a merchant's house, where a very old white-bearded man sits up on the brick sleeping platform under a quilt, one hand raised as he eagerly tells his dream, while an old woman on a low stool beside the platform, sewing in her lap, shakes her head and waves a hand at him with an amused, scolding smile; a lattice window, a hanging steelyard, a shelf of balance scales and weights, a chest and sacks of grain fill the room.
