Description: Portrait of five of the missionaries' language instructors who traveled with them from Chengdu to Mt. Omei to provide continual guidance in Chinese language instruction. All five of them wear scholars' gowns. The two men in the middle hold the hands of a young child, probably one of theirs son. On the left is a Buddhist priest from the temple where they are staying. He can be identified by the very long wide sleeves of his gown, which harken back to the scholars' styles of the Ming Dynasty. See all items with this value
