EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the imposing City Wall of Peking, or Beijing, China, during the late 19th or early 20th century. The City Wall, a historic landmark and a symbol of the ancient capital's rich cultural heritage, has stood as a protective barrier since the 13th century. In this image, we see the intricate design of the brick and tamped-earth fortification, with its watchtowers, gates, and battlements, all set against the backdrop of the urban landscape beyond. The city's traditional, low-lying houses and narrow streets can be glimpsed through the wall's openings, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the indigenous population during this era. The photograph's ethnographic value lies in its depiction of a time when Peking was still largely untouched by Western influence, making it a valuable record of the city's ethnic and architectural history. The vintage feel of the albumen print further adds to its allure, transporting us back to an age when travel was an adventure and the world was full of new discoveries.
