EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Peking" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the vibrant city of Beijing. The French School artist masterfully captures the essence of this bustling Asian metropolis in exquisite detail. The image showcases a scene of Chinese men dressed in traditional attire, engaged in conversation while transporting a passenger in an elegant palanquin. The richly colored costumes and intricate design elements highlight the cultural richness and diversity of China. The educational card from which this print originates serves as a window into history, providing valuable insights into Chinese customs and modes of transportation during that era. It offers viewers an opportunity to explore not only the physical landscape but also delve deeper into the social fabric and daily life experiences of people living in Peking (now known as Beijing). As we admire this artwork, we are transported to another time and place – one filled with intrigue, mystery, and cultural exchange. Through its vivid depiction, this print invites us to appreciate both the beauty of artistry and gain knowledge about different cultures. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, "Peking" by Bridgeman Images is truly a treasure for any fine art enthusiast or history buff seeking to connect with China's past.
