EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1860, offering a mesmerizing aerial view of Peking, now known as Beijing. The focus of this image is the magnificent 16th-century walls that encircled the city during that time. These towering fortifications were not only a symbol of protection but also an embodiment of China's rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot, we are transported to a bygone era where daily life unfolded within these ancient walls. The streets below bustle with activity, revealing glimpses of Chinese citizens going about their routines amidst the backdrop of traditional architecture and narrow roadways. The photograph captures one particular gate in the middle section of the wall, showcasing its grandeur and intricate design. This gateway served as both an entrance into Peking for travelers from afar and a reminder to its inhabitants of their connection to centuries past. Beyond its historical significance, this image also hints at China's ongoing process of westernization during that period. While still steeped in tradition, Peking was beginning to embrace elements from other cultures through trade and interaction with foreign powers. Overall, this remarkable print offers us a rare glimpse into Peking's past - a moment frozen in time where ancient walls stood tall against progress while embracing change on its bustling streets.
