EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph taken in 1936 by an anonymous Chinese photographer showcases a traditional mode of transportation in China. The image depicts a woman being carried in a litter, also known as a sedan chair, through the bustling streets of an Asian city. The woman is seated comfortably inside the enclosed structure while male porters bear her weight on their shoulders. The scene offers us a glimpse into the social dynamics and customs of early 20th-century China. Litters were commonly used by wealthy individuals to travel short distances within crowded cities or for leisurely outings. In this particular instance, it appears that the woman is accompanied by servants or attendants who ensure her comfort during the journey. The photograph exudes an air of elegance and tradition, capturing the essence of Chinese culture at that time. It serves as a reminder of how societal roles were defined and upheld, with men taking on physical labor while women enjoyed certain privileges associated with their status. Preserved in private collection until now, this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind its composition and its historical significance. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when litters traversed busy streets amidst vibrant daily life in China's urban centers.
