Drawing of the Grand Canal in Peking

Vintage drawing of the Grand Canal in Peking. This black and white city drawing shows the traffic flow in and around the ancient city of Pekin. A great copyright free Asian city drawing that you could add to your next project and is in the public domain.

The Illustrated London News published the Illustrated London Reading Book, 3rd ed. in 1851. I found this drawing and a number of others on Reusable Art from this very vintage source.

This image is copyright free and in the public domain anywhere that extends copyrights 70 years after death or at least 120 years after publication when the original illustrator is unknown.
