EDITORS COMMENTS
This color photograph, titled "Un Bac De Passage A Nam-Dinh" transports us back to 19th century Vietnam. The image, taken by an unknown European photographer, showcases a bustling scene on the banks of the Red River in Nam Dinh. In the foreground, we see a traditional Vietnamese ferry known as a bac de passage. This wooden vessel is filled with passengers and cargo, ready to embark on their journey across the river. The vibrant colors of their clothing contrast beautifully against the serene blue waters. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable; it captures not only the daily life of the people but also provides us with a glimpse into Vietnam's rich cultural heritage. From the intricate patterns adorning their garments to the meticulously crafted boat itself, every detail tells a story. This print is part of a private collection and was originally featured as an illustration for Autour Du Monde magazine in 1900. It serves as a testament to both photography's ability to document history and art's power to evoke emotion. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time - immersed in the sights and sounds of Nam Dinh during its heyday. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed since this photo was taken, there are certain aspects of humanity that remain timeless: our desire for connection and exploration across vast landscapes like rivers or oceans.
