EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the year 1901, offering a rare glimpse into the opulent world of the Empress Dowager Cixi in her residence within the Forbidden City. Captured by Underwood & Underwood, renowned pioneers of stereoscopic photography, this image showcases the grandeur and architectural splendor that defined imperial China. The focal point is Harmony Gate, an imposing structure seen from an elevated walk near the canal. Its intricate design and meticulous craftsmanship reflect both Chinese tradition and royal authority. Standing proudly against a monochrome backdrop, it serves as a gateway to another era. Amidst this regal setting stands a man - perhaps an attendant or visitor - adding scale to the immense palace complex behind him. The presence of people hints at life within these hallowed walls; where emperors once ruled and ceremonies unfolded with utmost pomp. As we contemplate this photograph today, it reminds us not only of China's rich history but also its enduring cultural legacy. It invites us to marvel at the achievements of ancient architecture while pondering on those who once walked these grounds - including one of history's most influential figures: Empress Dowager Cixi herself. Let this evocative image transport you back in time as you imagine yourself strolling through Beijing's Forbidden City over a century ago – surrounded by beauty fit for
