Description
Photograph of a view of a farm and farmhouse in China, ca.1900. A long, one-story building made of thatched bamboo is shown from a distance at center, its tiled, pagoda-style roof sagging. In the foreground, the tilled, cultivated landscape is reflected in a pool of still water, possibly a pond. In the background, higher roofs of buildings similar to the farm house can be seen. Bare trees are dispersed throughout.
