The Qing Dynasty is the closest dynasty to modern times and the most curious. Therefore, there are many Qing Palace dramas, and the effect is still very good, such as "The Secret History of Cixi", "The Great Eunuch Li Lianying" and "The Last Emperor". Besides, there is definitely a gap between the TV and history, and the good point is that "art comes from life above life". Now share some real old photos of the Qing Dynasty, don't be deceived by the TV series~
Figure 1: As we all know, in the late Qing Dynasty, many people believed that cameras could "capture people's souls" to kill people, so they held a long-term rejection of photography, which greatly hindered the popularization of photography. Although photography has not been widely welcomed by the public, the women of the Qinglou Have taken the lead in falling in love with taking pictures, inadvertently making photography fashionable, and promoting the popularization of photography in a non-mainstream way. For the women of the Qinglou, taking pictures can retain their youthful shadows, and they also give their own photos to their customers so that admirers can enjoy them at any time and use them for self-promotion. In the picture, in 1900, a young and dusty woman who could not read, fulfilled her wish in the studio!
Figure 2: In 1902, the Eight-Power Alliance watched the judgment of the Chinese Yamen case, which was an unforgettable past in China's modern history.
Fig. 3: In 1910, the beautiful bride in this old photograph is the daughter of Zeng Guofan, and the groom next to her is Li Hongzhang's nephew. Li Hongzhang and Zeng Guofan were both important ministers in the late Qing Dynasty, and the marriage of the two powerful ministers at that time could be described as a sensation in the capital.
Figure 4: In the late Qing Dynasty, after school, students give Mr. Private School a hand.
Figure 5 [Qiren couple smoking opium] How crazy was opium smoking in the late Qing Dynasty? For example, everyone understands that at that time, some cities did not have a large number of rice shops, that is, people thought that smoking opium was more important than buying rice to cook. Opium smoking has become the most common way of communicating, and if you don't smoke opium, it seems out of place.
Figure 6: Wang Zhaoming, pen name "Jingwei", born in the ninth year of Guangxu, studied in Japan at the age of 20, participated in the formation of the Alliance At the age of 22, in 1910 Wang Jingwei planned and carried out the assassination of Puyi's father, Ai Xinjueluo Zaifeng, when Zaifeng planted bombs on the road he had to pass every day, he was discovered by the gendarmerie and fled, and a few days later the assassination was verified by the Qing government, wang Jingwei was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment, and he was released after the Wuchang Uprising. In prison, he once wrote a bold poem that "the knife is quick, and does not live up to the head of the teenager", but the late festival is not guaranteed, and he has become a traitor spurned by thousands of people. Pictured here is a photo of young Wang Jingwei after an injury.
Figure 7: On March 11, 1912, the Provisional Government of the People's Republic of China ordered a ban on foot binding. In the early days of the Republic of China, it was an important measure to change customs and customs, and it was also an important decree of social reform at that time. The implementation of the policy of prohibiting foot binding enabled the prohibition and extinction of this feudal practice.
Figure 8: Cixi plays COSPLAY, Cixi plays Guanyin, and Li Lianying plays His Holiness Hui'an. Empress Longyu and Concubine Guangxu appeared together
Figure 9: On January 8, 1902, Cixi and Guangxu, who fled westward due to the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of Beijing, returned to Beijing, returned to Luang, and the train stopped at Majiapu outside the capital, but instead took a palanquin to the Bodhisattva Temple and guandi temple at Zhengyang Gate to pick incense. Just then, the famous candid photography incident occurred, with foreign journalists crouching on the city wall, waiting to photograph the empress dowager and the emperor. Sure enough, when Cixi looked at the city wall, she was secretly photographed. Does Cixi in the photo know whether she is holding a hand towel to cover up, or waving to the people on the city wall? Maybe only the parties are clear.
