Story Four Hundred and Twelve · Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio

Carpenter Feng

A line drawing in the manner of a late-Qing lithographed edition: on a moonlit night in a carpenters' lodging room, a kerchiefed young carpenter sits up on a plank bed with a quilt over his knees and looks in surprise toward a half-open latticed window, where a smiling girl in a long skirt leans in with one hand on the window leaf, while a rooster stands on the courtyard wall behind her and a round moon hangs in the sky, with a workbench, tools, timbers and wood shavings in the room.
