Located on the Pe Kiang River in Guangdong province, China, this stunning landscape is captured through a steel engraving by Thomas Allom. The image showcases a breathtaking mountain peak rising proudly against the backdrop of an expansive river. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship of the engraving bring out every nuance of this picturesque scene. As we delve deeper into the composition, we notice a river boat gracefully sailing along with its crew of boatmen navigating these waters with expertise and precision. The presence of people adds scale and perspective to this awe-inspiring vista.
