EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning woodcut print captures the Imperial Maritime Customs House in Shanghai as it stood in 1857. Located at the Bund, the waterfront area in Shanghai, China, this architectural masterpiece was a symbol of the growing influence of Great Britain in the region during the late 19th century. The Imperial Maritime Customs House was built to serve as the headquarters for the Imperial Maritime Customs Service, an organization established by the British government to collect taxes on foreign trade in China. Designed by British architects Henry Bakewell and Frederick Townsend, the building was a fusion of Western and Chinese architectural styles, with its red brick exterior and ornate roofline reflecting traditional Chinese design elements. The print offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the building's interior, with its spacious halls, intricately carved wooden beams, and ornate decorative details. The large windows allow natural light to flood the rooms, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The print also reveals the bustling activity outside, with ships anchored in the harbor and people going about their daily business. This woodcut print is a testament to the rich history of Shanghai and the significant role the Imperial Maritime Customs House played in the city's development as a major international trading hub. It is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a unique perspective on the cultural exchange that took place between China and the West during the late 19th century.
