EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1922, transports us back to the tranquil Buddhist island of Putou, located in the East China Sea southeast of Shanghai, China. The scene showcases a group of men, dressed in traditional Eastern attire, gathered around an ornate pagoda. The serene atmosphere is further accentuated by the presence of a Buddhist priest, who sits in deep meditation, his eyes closed in contemplation. The men, with their distinctive racial types and intriguing costumes, add a sense of intrigue and authenticity to the image. The pagoda, with its intricate design and ornate details, stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Buddhism in China. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a time of great social, political, and cultural change. Yet, on the secluded island of Putou, the traditional customs and religious practices continued uninterrupted. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into a world that, while different from our own, holds a universal appeal. The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of religion and the importance of preserving cultural heritage. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the diversity and richness of human history. Today, as we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time, offering us a moment of respite from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
