Description
Photograph of a view of a city beside Pearl River, in Canton, China, ca.1900. Rows of buildings and homes stand at right, while several boats dock on a body of water, at left, while smaller vessels can be seen riding the current all along the river. A tall pole stands left of the foreground, and the distant mountains can be vaguely discerned in the far background.
