Légende

Sketches of Annam, Cochin China: river scene, 1883. 'Our Sketches of the scenery and native population of Annam, or Cochin China, to which the province of Tonquin geographically belongs, are continued in this Number of our Journal. Tonquin, indeed, has been more subjected to Chinese influences than the southern provinces of Annam, but there is a general similarity of race, and of habits and manners, among the inhabitants of the coast region, and on the banks of the great rivers, in this south-eastern peninsula of the Asiatic continent. The Shan and Lao highland tribes of the interior seem to be quite a different race'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
