EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Black Plague in China" takes us back to the 19th century. Captured by an English photographer, this image offers a haunting glimpse into a dark chapter of history. The photograph showcases the Chinese quarter during the devastating outbreak of the Black Plague. As we examine this snapshot, we are transported to a bustling street scene filled with both Chinese and English architecture. The densely populated area is teeming with life, yet there is an air of unease that permeates through the frame. This principal street in West Point, Hong Kong serves as the center stage for this harrowing event. The composition expertly captures the essence of Asia's struggle during this time period. The photographer's lens allows us to witness firsthand how communities were affected by this deadly disease. Through their skilled use of photography, they have immortalized these moments forever. This powerful image from Bridgeman Images reminds us not only of our shared human history but also serves as a testament to the resilience and strength exhibited by those who lived through such trying times. It stands as a poignant reminder that even amidst darkness, hope can still be found within our collective spirit.
