Meer info | Third edition. First edition was published in 1920. Folio.\nMennie was born in Scotland in 1875 or 76, and arrived in China in about 1899 to become eventually a director of A.S. Watson and Co., the pharmacy business that published the book. Much of his published work is in the pictorialist style – his photogravures being more art objects than documentary photographs, often with rich or soft browns and subtle tones. His subjects evoked a romantic vision of ‘antique China’. Includes photographs of famous views such as the Summer Palace, the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and scenes of shopkeepers, merchants, travellers, monks etc. |
