This print showcases a stunning piece of Chinese artistry from the 19th century. The image features a Chinese Serow, scientifically known as Capricornis milneedwardsi argyrochaetes, beautifully depicted in ink and watercolor on paper. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. The Chinese Serow is portrayed with meticulous attention to detail, capturing the essence of this majestic animal. Its distinctive horns and goat-like appearance are skillfully rendered, showcasing the artistic prowess of the creator. This artwork represents not only a visual delight but also serves as an important zoological record. Hailing from Hindoostan (India) during the Mughal era, this painting exemplifies the rich cultural exchange between China and India at that time.
