This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Peking, China in 1902. The image captures a view of the central street in the Chinese quarter, offering a glimpse into daily life during the Qing Dynasty. In the foreground, we see the iconic Beggars Bridge stretching across a flowing river. Its architectural beauty is highlighted by its arched design and covered awning, providing shade for pedestrians passing by. The bridge serves as both a functional crossing point and an aesthetic landmark within this vibrant cityscape. The scene is filled with activity as people go about their day.
