EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The saleroom at Hanoi, c. 1920" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of French-occupied Vietnam. Captured by an anonymous French photographer, this image showcases the vibrant energy of a historical region bordering China. In this urban scene, we are transported to a colonial-era saleroom filled with activity. The grand facade of the department store stands tall, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. The street is alive with traffic, as rickshaws navigate through the busy thoroughfare. Amidst all the movement and commotion, a male figure can be seen pulling a rickshaw - a common mode of transport during that era. His presence adds depth to the photograph, reminding us of the human element within this dynamic cityscape. "The saleroom at Hanoi" offers us a glimpse into life during French colonialism in Southeast Asia. It captures not only architectural beauty but also reflects on themes such as commerce and cultural exchange between East and West. Preserved by eArchives Charmet and made available through Fine Art Finder's collection from Bridgeman Images, this remarkable photograph serves as both a visual record and an artistic testament to an important period in history.
