EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a fascinating glimpse into the private and public life in Amoy, China during the 19th century. Taken by an European photographer, this print showcases the Chinese doctor and his unique methods of medicine. The image is part of a collection titled "China of Today or The Yellow Peril" edited by Charles N Robinson. In this scene, we see a group gathered around the Chinese doctor, who appears to be sharing his knowledge with them. The atmosphere is filled with curiosity and intrigue as they engage in conversation about health and medical practices. A lady can be seen seated on a toilet nearby, perhaps indicating that discussions about personal well-being extend even to intimate matters. The composition offers insight into both private and public aspects of life in Amoy at that time. It provides a window into how healthcare was approached within the community, highlighting cultural differences compared to Western practices prevalent during that era. This historical photograph not only serves as documentation but also sparks contemplation on topics such as traditional medicine, intercultural exchange, and societal dynamics. Its inclusion in "China of Today or The Yellow Peril" suggests its significance in understanding the complexities surrounding China's perception during this period. Overall, this image invites viewers to explore the intersection between medicine, culture, and history while appreciating its artistic value captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder.
