Taken by an anonymous European photographer during the 19th century, this rare print offers a glimpse into the world of Chinese bureaucracy and gentry. The image showcases a row of seated men dressed in elaborate robes that signify their high status within society. Each mandarin exudes an air of authority and wisdom as they pose for the camera with utmost formality. However, it is the intricate beaded necklaces adorning their attire that truly catch the eye. These beads hold great significance as they symbolize their role as courtiers within the imperial court.
