"Chinoiserie with a woman playing the mouth organ" is an etching created by French artist Jean Pierre Louis Laurent Hoüel in the 18th century. The print is part of a series of etchings titled "Suite de Figures Chinoises" which depicted European interpretations of Chinese dress, landscapes, and activities. This particular print features a woman, dressed in elaborate Chinese clothing, playing a mouth organ in a landscape setting, likely inspired by reports of European travelers to China. The print is a charming example of the Chinoiserie style, which was popular in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries, and reflects the fascination with Chinese culture and art during this period.
