Chinese Embassy Delegation at Niagara Falls

Charles Bierstadt

National Gallery of Art

A group of men is depicted on a wooden bridge-like structure. They are dressed in formal clothing, including suits and traditional garments, complete with hats. Some are leaning against the railing. The men have clean-shaven faces and mustaches, with varying short hairstyles. The background includes a stone tower resembling a lighthouse on the right side, trees, a clear sky, and mist possibly from a waterfall in the distance.
