Description
A large group of Caucasian students dressed in Chinese costume pose for a photograph in the Greek Theatre at night. The women are wearing robes or qipao with their hair up and heavy makeup with accentuated eyebrows. The men are wearing pants and jackets (or changshan) with long braids, skullcaps, and painted-on Fu Manchu mustaches. Some of the students have darkened faces. Most of them are also holding paper lanterns.
