The Great Wall, Pekin, China, 1895. Creator: Unknown
The Great Wall, Pekin, China, 1895. View of the wall at what is now known as Beijing. Built on Chinas northern border to keep out Turkic and Mongol raiders, parts of the Great Wall date back to the 4th century BC. Most of the best preserved sections of the wall that exist today were rebuilt in the 15th and 16th century during the Ming dynasty. Stretching from the Gulf of Chih Li (Bo Hai) in the east, into the heart of Central Asia, the Great Wall was some 4000 miles long in total. From " Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago". [George Newnes Ltd, London, 1895]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing view of the Great Wall in what is now known as Beijing, China. The photograph, taken in 1895 by an unknown creator, showcases the architectural marvel that was built on China's northern border to defend against Turkic and Mongol raiders. Parts of this magnificent wall date back to the 4th century BC, while the best-preserved sections were reconstructed during the Ming dynasty in the 15th and 16th centuries. Stretching over an astounding length of approximately 4000 miles from the Gulf of Chih Li (Bo Hai) into Central Asia, this monumental fortification stands as a testament to ancient Chinese engineering prowess. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness its grandeur firsthand. The landscape surrounding the Great Wall is adorned with rolling hills that add depth and beauty to this awe-inspiring scene. This monochrome print perfectly captures both the historical significance and natural splendor of one of humanity's greatest achievements. Published by George Newnes Ltd in London in their book "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago" this photograph serves as a timeless reminder of our shared human history. It invites us to appreciate not only China's rich cultural heritage but also mankind's ability to create enduring wonders that transcend time itself.
