This rare collection of old photographs illustrates the complex interweaving of social classes and gender roles throughout history. Female slaves dressed in sexy black silk expose the stigmatization and sexism of women under slavery, while the Japanese geisha scratching their heads at the door reflects the social ignorance and objectification of women for sex workers at the time.
These images vividly show the historical side and evoke a deep reflection on social progress and human dignity. With compassion and love, we will strive to create a society that respects the living space and values of each individual. This group of photos is not only a record of history, but also a reflection and warning of the current social reality.
