EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, taken in 1902 by Underwood & Underwood, we are transported to the courtyard of a lavish Chinese house in Peking, China. The image showcases a group of women dressed in traditional Chinese costumes, providing us with a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the country during that era. The women stand together gracefully, their elegant poses reflecting both poise and confidence. Their attire is intricately detailed, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistry prevalent during the Qing Dynasty. Each woman's dress tells its own story through vibrant colors and delicate embroidery. The courtyard itself exudes tranquility and serenity. Lush greenery surrounds them as they gather under an ornate pavilion adorned with intricate carvings. This setting serves as a testament to the opulence enjoyed by wealthy families at that time. Through stereoscopic photography techniques employed by Underwood & Underwood, this print captures depth and dimensionality, adding another layer of realism to an already mesmerizing scene. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history over a century ago, we are reminded of China's enduring beauty and its people's graceful spirit. It is an exquisite portrayal of female camaraderie within a privileged society that continues to captivate our imagination today.
