EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures Mme. Wu Ting Fang, also known as Ho Miu Ling or Ng Choy, the wife of Chinese diplomat Wu Tingfang, in the late 19th or early 20th century. Dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, Mme. Wu exudes confidence and poise as she gazes directly at the camera with a gentle smile. The portrait was taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, who captured numerous historic images during the 1890s and 1910s. Mme. Wu Ting Fang's elegant attire, with its intricate patterns and vibrant colors, showcases the rich cultural heritage of China during this period. Her confident demeanor and direct gaze challenge the stereotypes and prejudices that existed towards Asian women during this time in America. Mme. Wu Ting Fang was not only known for her beauty and grace but also for her philanthropic efforts. She was a prominent figure in the Chinese community in America and played a significant role in promoting cultural exchange between China and the United States. This portrait is a testament to the strength and resilience of Mme. Wu Ting Fang and the important role she played in history. It is a valuable addition to the extensive collection of portrait photographs taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston during the 1890s and 1910s, which are now housed in the Library of Congress.
