EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the uncut fingernails of Dr. Ding, a respected teacher in Foochow, China, circa 1906. The image is presented as a stereograph, adding depth and dimension to the subject matter. Dr. Ding's long and intricate fingernails are showcased prominently in the photo, drawing attention to this unique aspect of Chinese culture at the time. His hands are delicately positioned within his robe's sleeve, emphasizing both elegance and mystery. The photograph offers a glimpse into early 20th-century China, providing valuable insight into traditional customs and practices that may have been unfamiliar to Western audiences at the time. Dr. Ding's uncut nails serve as symbols of wisdom and status within Chinese society during this era. They represent his dedication to education as well as his elevated position as a teacher in Foochow. Through this striking image, we can appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance of these cultural artifacts from another time and place.
