Island of Kulangsu, c. 1868 - A Glimpse into China's Coastal Beauty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting Island of Kulangsu in the late 19th century. Captured by the talented British photographer John Thomson, this vintage collotype image showcases the stunning scenery that made this island a popular tourist attraction. The photograph transports us to a time when boats were the primary mode of transportation along China's coast. The tranquil waters surrounding Kulangsu provide a picturesque backdrop for these traditional watercraft, their sails gracefully billowing in the wind. Thomson's artistic eye beautifully captures both the natural beauty and cultural heritage of this oriental destination. The island's lush greenery and rocky coastline create a harmonious blend with its historic architecture, reflecting China's rich history and unique charm. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how travel has always been an integral part of human exploration and curiosity. This UNESCO World Heritage Site continues to captivate visitors today with its timeless allure. Through Thomson's lens, we are transported not only geographically but also through time itself – allowing us to appreciate both his artistic talent and his contribution to our understanding of Chinese culture during that era. This remarkable piece is now preserved at the Art Institute Chicago, serving as an enduring testament to Thomson’s legacy as one of Scotland’s most celebrated photographers.
