8x10 print made by Rosenfeld and Sons ca. 1957. Closeup of the bow of the Chinese junk, JADED LADY. View of a young woman painting the bow area where a figurehead would be in older days but here is attached an intricate carving on a flat background of a Chinese dragon. Young woman is of Asian descent and probably Chinese and is kneeling on the right side on one of the wooden line supports attached to both sides of the boat that run from the bow to the stern. No original negative number. No information or stamp on back of print. CREDIT LINE: Mystic Seaport, Rosenfeld Collection.
