Albumen Shanghai Showing Temple Tents Walled City Miao Set Up
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Shanghai in 1870. The image showcases a picturesque view of a tea pavilion nestled within the walled city, offering a glimpse into daily life during this era. The tea pavilion stands proudly near the renowned City God Temple (Cheng huang miao), its elegant architecture blending harmoniously with its surroundings. As we explore further, we are greeted by an array of vibrant vendor stalls and tents that have been set up around it. These temporary structures create a lively atmosphere, filled with the sounds of chatter and commerce. The albumen printing technique used for this photograph adds depth and richness to every detail captured. It allows us to appreciate not only the intricate design of the tea pavilion but also the textures and colors present in each stall and tent surrounding it. Through this image, we are transported back in time to experience Shanghai's vibrant street culture as it once was. We can almost imagine ourselves strolling through these historic streets, savoring fragrant teas at the pavilion while immersing ourselves in the sights and sounds of everyday life in this thriving city.
