EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Four scenes of life and death in the Celestial Empire" captures the essence of 19th-century China. Taken by a European photographer, it offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural practices of the time. The image showcases four distinct scenes that depict various aspects of Chinese life. The first scene portrays venerated mandarins paying their respects at a tomb, highlighting the importance placed on ancestral worship and honoring one's ancestors. In contrast, the second scene presents a sociable tea party where individuals gather to enjoy each other's company. This emphasizes the social nature of Chinese culture and their love for communal gatherings. Moving along, we encounter a captivating scene featuring people leisurely crossing over Silver River using traditional wheelbarrows. This picturesque moment reflects both practicality and beauty in everyday life. Lastly, we witness an intriguing jaunt with individuals riding on wheeled barrows through narrow streets. This dynamic portrayal showcases transportation methods unique to China during that era. Overall, this print provides an insightful look into different facets of Chinese society during the late 19th century.
