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

Mrs. Lin

A line drawing in the manner of a late-Qing lithographed edition: in the main hall of a well-off house on a birthday morning, a bearded middle-aged man in a scholar's cap sits in an armchair with both hands raised in astonishment, while a youth, a boy and a girl stand in a row covering their laughter with their sleeves and a smiling woman stands beside his chair, with a feast table, a longevity-god scroll, candles and peaches, and a courtyard with bamboo and a garden rock behind them.
