EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1654-1722)" 2. Description: This etching portrays Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, who ruled China from 1662 to 1722. Born in 1654, Kangxi ascended the throne at the young age of 13 following the death of his father, Emperor Shunzhi. This image is an 1847 French original work, with a Spanish translation published in Barcelona in 1863. 3. Background: The Qing Dynasty, which began in 1644, was the last imperial dynasty of China. Kangxi's reign is considered one of the most prosperous periods in Chinese history due to his effective governance and military conquests. This etching is a testament to the widespread interest in Chinese culture during the European Age of Discovery. 4. Artistic Details: The etching, created by the skilled hands of Mathieu Henrion, Richard and Keang (not the company), showcases the regal presence of Emperor Kangxi. He is depicted in a vertical, upright position, wearing the traditional imperial robes and a formal headdress. The black and white contrast creates an intriguing depth, emphasizing the intricate details of the emperor's attire and the subtle textures of the background. 5. Historical Significance: This etching is an essential piece of historical documentation, as it offers a visual representation of Emperor Kangxi during a pivotal time in Chinese history. It also highlights the global exchange of ideas and artistic styles that occurred during the 18th century, as evidenced by the French original being translated and published in Spain. 6. Provenance: This etching is now part of the vast collection at Barcelona University Library, a testament to the rich cultural heritage it holds. It serves as a reminder of the intricate connections between different civilizations and the enduring impact of historical figures like Emperor Kangxi.
