Beautiful & delightful Chris ! … love his quick strokes on the raft/punt and his reduced details for distant vegetation & temple.
Maybe the water theme & slow movement of the punter echo the fan’s cooling by delicate action …
It’s a gem !

You are quite right Lucy. Many of the fan designs were intended to generate a sense of coolness: often by means of waterscapes.
