EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the vibrant and dynamic city of Shanghai during the 1930s, specifically to the iconic Metropole Hotel. Shanghai, then under Chinese Nationalist rule, was a bustling metropolis and a major economic, political, and cultural center in East Asia. The Metropole Hotel, an architectural marvel of the era, stood proudly on The Bund, the famous waterfront area along the Huangpu River. The Metropole Hotel, built in the Art Deco style, was a symbol of modernity and luxury in the city. Its towering structure, with its distinctive curved corners and ornate decorative motifs, embodied the elegance and sophistication of the era. The building's tall, slender silhouette, framed against the backdrop of the Bund and the river, is a testament to the architectural innovation and artistic flair of the time. The photograph captures the hotel in all its glory, with its grand entrance, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate detailing, welcoming guests from the bustling street below. The street scene outside is a hive of activity, with people going about their daily business, horse-drawn carts and automobiles jostling for space, and the sounds of commerce and industry filling the air. This photograph is a precious piece of history, offering us a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich cultural and architectural heritage of Shanghai during the 1930s. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Chinese history, architecture, or the Art Deco movement.
