More than 200 years ago, a Chinese official named “Seventy-six” was sent to Taiwan. From 1744-1747 he served as the Taiwanese Imperial Censor, during which he commissioned an artist to paint the customs and practices of the aboriginal people. This was then made into a book that illustrated the basic aspects of aboriginal life, including food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. Its simple yet lively style and delightful portrayals have been a source of inspiration to artists and scholars for the last hundred years. Several editions are still in existence as a result. |
