EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of travel in Indo-China at the turn of the 20th century. The image shows a determined woman, dressed in traditional Vietnamese attire, being pulled by a rickshaw puller through the bustling streets of an unnamed Indo-Chinese town. The rickshaw, a common mode of transportation during this period, is a simple yet effective means of getting around, with its two wheels and a seat for the passenger. The historical context of this photograph is significant, as Indo-China was a French colonial territory from the late 19th century until the mid-20th century. During this time, the region underwent significant changes, with Western influence bringing new technologies and ways of life to the local population. The rickshaw, a Chinese invention that had been in use since the late 1800s, became a popular means of transportation in Indo-China, and its use spread rapidly during the colonial period. The rickshaw puller, dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, can be seen in the background of the photograph, his face expressionless as he focuses on the task at hand. The woman, on the other hand, seems to be lost in thought, perhaps reflecting on the sights and sounds of her journey. The photograph provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the history of Indo-China and the ways in which its people traveled during a time of great change. This photograph, taken in 1889, is a reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of Indo-China and the ways in which transportation has shaped the region's history. The use of the rickshaw as a means of transportation during this period is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people of Indo-China, and this image serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the past and understanding the historical context of the places we visit.
