Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First. De bloei van de fotografie als medium medio 19e eeuw viel samen met een groeiende nieuwsgierigheid naar China vanuit de westerse wereld. Toen het aantal buitenlanders dat in China woonde en reisde toenam, werden vroege foto's van China genomen door en voor een internationaal publiek. Among the Celestials verzamelt 250 fascinerende beelden van China uit de tweede helft van de 19e eeuw en de eerste helft van de 20e eeuw, vastgelegd door westerse camera's. De foto's laten ons niet alleen de harde kant van het land zien, maar ook verbluffende paleizen, tempels, havens en tuinen. Deze combinatie van armoede en sereniteit schetst een complex beeld van China's fysieke en sociale landschap voordat Mao Zedong de macht veroverde en het land voor altijd veranderde. De foto's, waarvan vele voor het eerst worden gepubliceerd, zijn tegelijk mooi en ontroerend en bieden samen een nieuw inzicht in de maatschappelijke en culturele geschiedenis van het land, in een tijd van ingrijpende historische veranderingen.

1stedn; lg4to Hardcover blue cloth, dustjacket, as new condition; clean and crisp; no internal marks. VG/vgdj: 224pp, 250 sepia tone illustrations. bw fullpg illus; The flourishing of photography as a medium in the mid-19th century coincided with a rise in curiosity about China on the part of the Western world. As the number of foreigners living and traveling in China increased, early photographs of China were taken by and for an international audience. Among the Celestials assembles 250 fascinating images of China in the second half of the 19th century and first half of the 20th, captured by the Western camera lens. The photographs portray the gritty side of the country as well as stunning views of palaces, temples, harbors, and gardens. This juxtaposition of the sordid and the serene provides a multidimensional picture of China?s physical and social landscape before Mao Zedong?s ascent to power changed the country forever. The photographs, many published here for the first time, are both beautiful and moving, and together offer a new understanding of a social and cultural history associated with a time of significant historical change. .
