Illustrator Clarkson Stanfield's first major voyage was to Whampoa (Huangpu), China in 1815. It has been said that Stanfield's depictions of ships, the ocean, and other travel-related subjects give his viewers hightened knowledge of these topics because they were so accurate. This voyage was the first of many from which he came back with many sketches, and it is also where his talents were first noticed. Stanfield's heightned knowledge of ships and voyages is the main reason he was chosen to illustrate for Ulysses, and this voyage to China is the first thing that got his talent noticed and sought after.
