EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in Hanoi, Vietnam in 1903, offers a glimpse into the past of this vibrant and historic city. The image features a traditional Vietnamese rickshaw, a common mode of transportation during that era. The rickshaw is pulled by a determined driver, dressed in simple clothing and a conical hat, as he navigates the bustling streets of Hanoi. Two women, elegantly dressed in Vietnamese traditional attire, sit in the passenger seat, their faces expressing a sense of calm and contentment. A young boy, dressed in simple clothing, sits in the back, holding onto the side of the rickshaw for support. The women appear to be deep in conversation, while the boy seems to be taking in the sights and sounds of the city. The rickshaw's spoked wheels turn smoothly, the spokes casting intricate shadows on the ground as they spin. The rickshaw's frame, made of wood and metal, is adorned with intricate details, reflecting the craftsmanship and artistry of the time. The passengers and driver seem oblivious to the passing crowds and the hustle and bustle of the city, creating a sense of intimacy and isolation within the confines of the rickshaw. This photograph offers a unique perspective into the history and culture of Hanoi during the early 20th century. The rickshaw, a symbol of transportation and tradition, provides a window into the daily lives of the people of Hanoi during that time. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of Vietnam.
