EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the enchanting beauty of a snow-covered street in Tianjin, China, circa 1880s. This photograph transports us to a bygone era, where horse-drawn carriages and traditional Chinese houses stand proudly against the backdrop of a winter wonderland. Tianjin, also known as Tientsin, was an important seaport city during the late Qing Dynasty. Its strategic location made it a melting pot of different cultures, attracting foreign trade and influence. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the city during the winter months, when the streets were transformed into a magical landscape of white. The image showcases the resilience of the local population, who continued their daily routines despite the harsh weather conditions. Horse-drawn carriages braved the snow-covered roads, while merchants and vendors set up shop, selling warm food and drinks to passersby. The traditional Chinese houses, with their distinctive roofs and intricate decorations, stood out against the snowy backdrop. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of Tianjin during the late 19th century. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of the bustling city, as we take a journey back in time.
