This presentation examines Bertha Lum's and Elizabeth Keith's remarkable series of woodblock prints made during sojourns in the major cities of China from the early 1900s through the 1930s. It considers how their prints drew directly from modern Chinese visual culture and imaginatively recast it to embody and reflect their own enchantment with China.
