This topographical and ethnographic print is Square of European Factories in Canton, modern Guangzhou, China). The scene depicts the waterfront area of the Thirteen Factories quarter, which was the restricted zone for European trade. Prominent European-style buildings (factoreries) displaying flags (including the French tricolor) stand on the left, contrasting sharply with the Chinese market scene and thatched huts in the center and right. This print is from the official album of the circumnavigation voyage commanded by Auguste-Nicolas Vaillant (Voyage autour du monde sur la corvette La Bonite).
Barthélémy Lauvergne was a French landscape and marine painter who served as one of the official artists on the circumnavigation commanded by Auguste-Nicolas Vaillant (1836–1837). His drawings and watercolors from these voyages provided invaluable visual documentation of ports, cities, and coastal landscapes across the globe, capturing scenes like the bustling, restricted trading zones of Canton.
