EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Wilson Chu, a cleaner gracefully walks through the historic Forbidden City in Beijing. The image dates back to June 15,2003, during a time when the city was slowly recovering from the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak. As more people began to visit the Forbidden City due to decreasing cases of SARS reported by the government, concerns still lingered. The World Health Organization emphasized that it needed further information about the pattern of SARS before lifting its recommendation against travel to China's capital. The photograph beautifully captures both hope and caution. The cleaner's presence symbolizes resilience and determination as life gradually returns to normalcy within this iconic landmark. Their solitary figure amidst vast courtyards and intricate architecture evokes a sense of tranquility and solitude. Chu's lens skillfully portrays not only an individual going about their daily duties but also serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to persevere in challenging times. This image encapsulates both historical significance and contemporary relevance, showcasing how global health crises can impact even revered cultural sites like the Forbidden City. With no rights clearances or permissions required for this powerful image, Chu has masterfully documented an important moment in history that continues to resonate today.
