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

Old Man Du

A line drawing in the manner of a late-Qing lithographed edition: on a daytime path beside a mud wall at the edge of a market town, an old man in a headcloth bends forward with one hand on the pointed doorway of a wine-seller's thatched house to peer inside, while three young women in long skirts slip in or glance back laughing, and behind them an official in a tile-ridged cap raises a hand and shouts, with a wine banner, wine jars, a bamboo pig pen with two piglets and willows nearby.
