In the social environment of saving and preserving the nation,the late Qing pictorial aimed to open up the atmosphere and published a large number of pictures of Western culture,technology,and social atmosphere,outlining an image of the West for readers who had not yet gone abroad and constructing a space for ordinary people to imagine Western society.The Western im-ages presented through pictorials are mixed with the understanding and interpretation of the editors and painters.This creative ap-proach is a direct reflection of editors and painters'attention to foreign society and conflicting psychology.The paradigm of pictori-al for Foreign Societies is an important reference for modern intellectual elites and governments in their discourse strategies of"o-pening up people's intelligence"and"creating new people".
