EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Peking (modern Beijing) around 1910. The focus is on the majestic Peking City Gate, a symbol of strength and grandeur. Standing tall against the skyline, this architectural marvel showcases intricate details that reflect the rich history and culture of China. In front of the gate, we see a mesmerizing sight - hundreds of rickshaws parked in perfect formation. These iconic vehicles were an integral part of daily life during that era, serving as a popular mode of transportation for both locals and visitors alike. Each rickshaw tells its own story through its unique design and craftsmanship. The composition captures not only the grandiosity of Peking City Gate but also provides a glimpse into everyday life at that time. It transports us to an era where tradition meets modernity, with people going about their daily routines amidst this vibrant cityscape. Displayed in landscape format, this print invites viewers to immerse themselves in every detail - from the box-like guardhouse atop the gate to each meticulously arranged rickshaw below. It serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural wonders and cultural artifacts preserved within this remarkable image.
