EDITORS COMMENTS
CHINA: PROFESSOR, c1919. Immersed in the world of knowledge and tradition, a Chinese professor captivates his audience with his scholarly presence. This theatrical tableau captures a moment frozen in time, as the learned man sits gracefully at a table, engrossed in writing within the pages of an ancient book. Surrounded by four onlookers who hang onto his every word, this scene showcases the power of education and intellectual pursuit within Chinese society during this era. The professor's attire reflects both elegance and status; dressed in traditional clothing adorned with intricate patterns and wearing a headdress that signifies wisdom. The photograph offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century China's entertainment culture. As performers bring stories to life through drama and theater, they transport their audiences to different worlds filled with emotion and imagination. In this particular performance, we witness the profound impact of one man's words on those around him. With pen poised delicately between his fingers, the professor embodies authority and respectability while exuding an air of mystery behind his well-groomed mustache. Seated confidently amidst an interior setting reminiscent of upper-class surroundings, he commands attention effortlessly. This stereograph print from 1919 is not just a mere image but also serves as a testament to China's rich cultural heritage. Preserved by the Library of Congress for future generations to appreciate its historical significance.
