EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of China before 1900. The image showcases a traditional Chinese puppet show, a popular form of entertainment during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The intricate and colorful puppets, skillfully manipulated by their unseen puppeteers, are illuminated by the warm glow of lanterns, casting an enchanting scene against the backdrop of the crowded street. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of China, showcasing the blend of ancient traditions and modern life that characterized the late Qing Dynasty period. The puppets themselves are a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of Chinese puppetry, with their intricate details and expressive faces. The use of lanterns not only adds to the magical atmosphere of the show but also serves as a practical solution for lighting in the dimly lit streets. This photograph is a precious reminder of the past, offering a window into a world that has long since vanished. The vibrant colors, the lively energy of the crowd, and the enchanting puppets all combine to create a captivating and evocative image that continues to delight and inspire viewers to this day.
