Notes: Lai Fong was a Chinese artist working in the final quarter of the nineteenth century, primarily from his studio in the Indian port of Kolkata. He was strongly influenced by an earlier generation of Chinese ships' portrait artists, including Lee Heng (flourished 1850-1870), Hing Qua (flourished 1850-1880), and Lai Sung (flourished 1850-1885). Lai Fong was known especially for portraying large sailing ships which called at Kolkata, either voyaging to or from the Far East. - https://www.artnet.com/artists/lai-fong/biography - consultado a 23-05-2023 às 11:23.
