EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to 19th-century Shanghai, offering a glimpse into the vibrant cultural scene of that era. The image showcases a fascinating combination of elements: a peepshow, storyteller, and tea pavilion near the renowned City God Temple. In this bustling corner of Shanghai, locals and visitors alike gathered to indulge in both entertainment and relaxation. The peepshow, an intriguing form of visual storytelling popular at the time, would have captivated audiences with its vivid scenes and narratives. Meanwhile, a skilled storyteller would weave tales that transported listeners to distant lands or recounted local legends. The tea pavilion provided respite for those seeking solace amidst the city's energetic atmosphere. Here, people could savor fragrant teas while immersing themselves in conversation or simply enjoying moments of tranquility. The City God Temple looms majestically in the background—a symbol of spiritual devotion and cultural heritage. Its grandeur serves as a reminder of Shanghai's rich history and religious significance. Captured using albumen photography techniques around 1870 by an unknown artist, this print offers us a precious window into Shanghai's past. It allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also the social customs and traditions that shaped this dynamic city during one of its most transformative periods.
