EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to a winter wonderland with this print of Peking City Wall (Beijing's ancient city walls), captured by renowned photographer Ernest Stephen Lumsden in 1911. The black and white etching, part of the Far Eastern plates series, showcases the majestic fortifications that once surrounded China's capital city.
In this striking image, a lone figure can be seen walking along the snow-covered wall, providing a sense of scale to the imposing structure. The wintry landscape adds a touch of serenity to the scene, while Lumsden's masterful composition draws attention to every detail - from the intricate carvings on the walls to the subtle texture of the surrounding trees.
This print is not only a testament to Lumsden's skill as an artist but also serves as a poignant reminder of China's rich cultural heritage. The Peking City Wall, once a symbol of imperial power and grandeur, has since been demolished - making this photograph all the more precious for its historical significance.
