Street view in Beijing, page, photomechanical print, photographer: Donald Mennie, Beijing, cliché maker: anonymous, c. 1915 - in or before 1920, paper, rotogravure, height 279 mm x width 188 mm, street, A sepia-toned street scene shows a row of low buildings with ornate eaves and wooden columns supporting a projecting roof structure; tall carved posts rise above the roofline topped with capped finials. People in traditional loose garments walk and stand along the unpaved road, including adults and children, some carrying bundles or holding small objects. Market-style awnings and simple wooden frameworks extend from the building fronts, and hanging items are visible near doorways. A few animals are present among the people toward the middle distance. Trees rise behind the buildings and the sky appears open and mostly clear above the scene.
