EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Petity metier: a Chinese wig" offers a glimpse into the daily life of a craftsman in early 20th century China. The image, part of a private collection by an anonymous photographer, showcases the intricate artistry involved in creating traditional Chinese wigs. The scene depicts a bustling street trade where this skilled artisan meticulously handcrafts hairpieces for customers. With focused concentration, he delicately arranges each strand to create stunning hairstyles that were popular during that era. The craftsmanship is evident in the fine details captured by the photographer's lens. The photo not only highlights the importance of this particular trade but also provides insight into Asian culture at the time. It serves as a reminder of how commerce thrived on these streets and how individuals like this craftsman played vital roles within their communities. Preserved through time, this postcard-like print allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty found within everyday life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Photo Josse's collection, we are transported back to an era when such trades flourished and contributed to shaping society.
