  • Field Marshal Garnet Joseph Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley, KP, GCB, OM, GCMG, VD, PC (4 June 1833 – 25 March 1913) was an Anglo-Irish officer in the British Army. He became one of the most influential and admired British generals after a series of successes in Canada, West Africa, and Egypt, followed by a central role in modernizing the British Army in promoting efficiency. He served in Burma, the Crimean War, the Indian Mutiny, China, Canada and widely throughout Africa—including his Ashanti campaign (1873–1874) and the Nile Expedition against Mahdist Sudan in 1884–85. Wolseley served as Commander-in-Chief of the Forces from 1895 to 1900. His reputation for efficiency led to the late 19th century English phrase "everything's all Sir Garnet", meaning, "All is in order."

  • COAST OF COCHIN [Kochi] CHINA. THE land in this view, generally seen by navigators in their passage from China to Bengal, is the mountainous region of Cochin China. It is a bold but barren coast, and bears few traces of vegetation, with none of culture. No high forest trees are seen sheltering the rocky summits, which the approaching tempest often overshadows with dark recumbent clouds. No rice plantations are discovered on the shore. The land, like the ocean, wears a rude but sublime aspect of desolation. colour print from the book ' A Picturesque Voyage to India by Way of China  ' by Thomas Daniell, R.A. and William Daniell, A.R.A.

  • Chinese Barber. In China many trades and avocations are pursued in the open air. The barber carries about his moveable shop, and cheerfully traverses the streets, in search of employment. When he encounters a person willing to accept his services, he dexterously removes the bamboo pole, to which his load is attached from the shoulder, and begins the elaborate process. The utensil on his left hand, resembling a tripod, supplies the fire and water so essentially necessary to the tonsorial operations: the chest on his right hand contains the apparatus for shaving the head and beard, cleansing the ears, cutting the nails of the toes and fingers, and is easily converted into a seat for the welcome customer. colour print from the book ' A Picturesque Voyage to India by Way of China  ' by Thomas Daniell, R.A. and William Daniell, A.R.A.

  • VIEW IN A CHINESE GARDEN. IT is curious to remark, that in a country where good taste appears to be almost unknown, it should be so conspicuously displayed in the art of dressing the surface of the earth. It must nevertheless be acknowledged, that while in every other liberal or elegant art the taste of the Chinese is either puerile or barbarous in the extreme, in ornamental gardening they have shewn themselves capable of instructing nations greatly their superiors in every other species of intellectual culture.  colour print from the book ' A Picturesque Voyage to India by Way of China  ' by Thomas Daniell, R.A. and William Daniell, A.R.A.

  • A Chinese lady presiding in her garden retreat: she is precluded by her exalted rank from any occupation but smoking ; and, except in holding her silk purse, or occasionally waving the fan, appears to have no use for her fingers. The dignity of her birth is sufficiently attested by the Lilliputian shoe. The practice of compressing the female foot is peculiar to the Chinese, and its origin has hitherto baffled all the efforts of industry and curiosity: it has been commonly attributed to jealousy ; but that passion is at least equally powerful in Turkey and Hindostan, where it has produced no analogous absurdity. The liberty of the Chinese ladies in reality is not abridged by their lameness ; they can saunter in the garden; they are permitted to go abroad in palanquins; and are in general even less restricted than other Asiatic females. colour print from the book ' A Picturesque Voyage to India by Way of China  ' by Thomas Daniell, R.A. and William Daniell, A.R.A.

  • Macao, China The European settlement of Macao is included in a small territory towards the southern extremity of a small island of that name, scarcely eight miles in circumference. It was during the short-lived era of their national glory that the Portuguese obtained possession of this spot, by a grant from the court of China; and in the time of Camoens, who passed here five years of his unfortunate life, Macao engrossed the trade of Japan, and carried onan extensive and lucrative intercourse with the Mogulempire. colour print from the book ' A Picturesque Voyage to India by Way of China  ' by Thomas Daniell, R.A. and William Daniell, A.R.A. London : Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, and Orme, and William Daniell by Thomas Davison, 1810. The Daniells' original watercolors for the scenes depicted herein are now at the Yale Center for British Art, Department of Rare Books and Manuscripts,
