EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Mencius, a revered Chinese Confucian philosopher who lived during the tumultuous Warring States period in the 4th century BC. The image exudes an air of wisdom and tranquility as Mencius sits serenely in his traditional costume, surrounded by decorative robes that reflect the rich cultural heritage of ancient China. The unknown creator beautifully captures Mencius engrossed in deep contemplation, absorbed in reading a book. His posture exudes confidence and poise as he embodies the teachings he shared with his students throughout his travels. According to Mencius, humans are inherently good but require nurturing and a favorable environment to flourish. This photograph is taken from "Myths and Legends of China" by E. T. C. Werner, published by George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd. , London, Calcutta, Sydney in 1922. It offers us a glimpse into the profound philosophy and timeless wisdom imparted by this sage during one of China's most transformative periods. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing portrait captured almost a century ago, we are reminded of Mencius' enduring influence on Chinese culture and philosophy. This image serves as a testament to his legacy as well as an invitation for us to delve deeper into the realms of ancient Chinese literature, mythology, and thought-provoking concepts that continue to shape our understanding today.
