EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Boxer Rebellion in Beijing, China. Taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, it offers a glimpse into the tumultuous events that unfolded during this period. The image showcases various views in and near Beijing, highlighting its rich architectural heritage. In the foreground, we see a majestic river flowing peacefully beneath three different types of bridges - wooden, stone, and suspension. These bridges symbolize connectivity and serve as gateways to the city's bustling streets beyond. Towering above them are the imposing city walls that once protected Beijing from external threats. Further back lies an entrance to one of China's grand palaces, with intricate designs adorning its facade. This palace stands as a testament to imperial power and authority during that era. Surrounding it are buildings that reflect traditional Chinese architecture, blending seamlessly with their surroundings. The photo also hints at the turmoil experienced during the Boxer Rebellion through its somber tone and absence of human presence. It serves as a reminder of how historical events shape our world today. Preserved in private collection for over a century, this image allows us to travel back in time and witness firsthand both the beauty and complexity of Beijing during this transformative period in Chinese history.
