EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, captures the enchanting scene of boats anchored along the Percival River in Canton (now Guangzhou), China, with the Sacred Heart Cathedral standing proudly in the background. The Sacred Heart Cathedral, a significant architectural landmark of the city, was built in the late 1880s by the French missionaries and completed in 1893. The cathedral's Gothic Revival style and red brick exterior were designed to reflect the European influence that was prevalent during this era in China. The image showcases the rich cultural fusion that characterized Canton during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The traditional Chinese junk boats, with their distinctive sails and intricate designs, are docked alongside more modern European vessels, reflecting the city's status as a major trading hub. The bustling streets and urban landscape in the foreground further emphasize the vibrant energy of this historic town. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the architectural, cultural, and historical significance of Canton during the late 1800s. The Sacred Heart Cathedral, with its striking presence, stands as a testament to the enduring influence of European architecture in China and serves as a reminder of the rich and complex history of this fascinating city.
