Description
Photograph of a gate separating two familes in Shanghai, ca.1900. An open-air corridor is shown, with a man standing just outside an arched opening in a wall littered with peeling announcements in Chinese. Through the archway, a person can be seen doing laundry, setting several shirts and other accoutrements on the line to dry. In the left foreground, a wooden frame can be seen, possibly a work bench.
