EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Shops Street Chinese City Pekin October 1860" takes us on a mesmerizing journey back in time. Captured by the talented photographer Felice Beato, this image showcases the bustling streets of Pekin (now known as Beijing), China, during the month of October in 1860. The scene is alive with activity as people navigate through a labyrinth of shops lining the street. The architecture and intricate details of these traditional Chinese buildings are awe-inspiring, transporting us to a different era. Each shop seems to have its own unique charm, beckoning passersby with colorful signs and vibrant displays. Beato's expert use of albumen silver print brings out every nuance and texture in this photograph, adding depth and richness to each element captured within the frame. The black-and-white tones evoke a sense of nostalgia while allowing us to focus on the composition itself. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, it is impossible not to wonder about the stories that unfolded within these walls over a century ago. This snapshot frozen in time offers an intriguing glimpse into daily life in one of China's most historic cities during a pivotal moment in history. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply drawn to historical imagery, this extraordinary print serves as both an exquisite decorative piece and a window into another world – reminding us that even though times change, some aspects of human existence remain timeless.
