[...] le quotidien Shenbao (申报) publie dès 1884 un supplément intitulé Magazine dla vie quotidienne, les mœurs et les coutumes en Chine à une époque où les photographies sont encore rares. [Translation: ... from 1884 the daily Shenbao (申报) published a supplement called "Magazine of the Studio of carved stone" (点石斋画报) which contained series of narrative images done with the baimiao technique. So this allowed the newspaper to enhance its readability by illustrating contemporary events at home and abroad, or by depicting daily life and behavior and customs in China at a time when photographs still remained uncommon.]
