EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "Pagoda at Old Summer Palace, Yu-chuan Shan, Jade Spring Hill," was created by the renowned Italian photographer Felice Beato in the 1860s. The photograph showcases a stunning pagoda nestled atop a hill in the Old Summer Palace, also known as the Yuquan or Jade Spring Hill, located in Beijing, China. The Old Summer Palace was once the imperial retreat and a symbol of power and grandeur for the Chinese emperors. The pagoda, with its intricate design and multi-tiered roofs, stands proudly against the backdrop of the hillside, surrounded by lush greenery and a serene landscape. The hill, dotted with trees and winding paths, adds to the picturesque beauty of the scene. The walled palace complex, with its impressive architecture and historic significance, can be seen in the distance. Felice Beato, an influential figure in the history of photography, captured this moment in time with exceptional skill and artistry. His photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of China and the beauty of its landscapes. This image, now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), continues to captivate viewers and inspire appreciation for the artistic and historical value of photography. The Old Summer Palace, with its pagoda and scenic hilltop views, remains an iconic symbol of Chinese history and a must-see destination for travelers and history enthusiasts. Felice Beato's photograph, as a window into the past, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and beauty of this historic site, frozen in time.
