Real old photos of the late Qing Dynasty: The woman was undressed and breastfed and was secretly photographed, and the poor barely had a piece of fabric to cover their ugliness 2

In the torrent of time, old photos are like open windows, allowing us to get a glimpse of the dust and brilliance of history. They are not just static images, but also flowing stories, connecting forgotten moments.

A photo, like a fragment of history, piece together the style and style of that era. One of them shows the bleak scene of the victims breastfeeding. The ragged woman looked helpless and tired in front of the camera, and her eyes revealed despair and helplessness in life. This scene can't help but remind people of that turbulent era, when the people suffered from war and famine, and lived in dire straits.

Another photo shows a group gymnastics performance in Prague, Czech Republic. The uniform pace and high morale show the unity and strength of a nation. Behind this, however, there is a shadow of politics. Art is used as a propaganda tool and a prop in the political arena. This makes one think about the delicate relationship between art and politics, as well as the manipulation and exploitation of art by power.

Let's take a look at a photo of a monument erected by Japan in Arthur after the Russo-Japanese War. The cold stone monument seems to tell the story of Japan's victory and glory. However, for the invaded country, these monuments are an unspeakable pain. They bear witness to the cruelty and ruthlessness of war, and also remind us to cherish peace and remember history.

In addition, the old photo album also records the figure of street performers in the late Qing Dynasty, King Kong and the police in the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang, interesting scenes of foreigners, the thrilling charge of the Japanese army, the solemn atmosphere in the Guozi Prison, the high-altitude flying planes taken by the reporters of the Japanese army, and the Japanese veterans who were escorted back to China by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. These photographs, like witnesses of history, give us a glimpse of the social landscape and human nature of that era.

In these old photos, we can see the imprints left by people of different cultures, nationalities and beliefs in the long river of history. They may be ordinary, they may be brave, but they all write their own stories in their own way. These stories may be sad, joyful, prosaic, or legendary, but they are all part of history and the precious wealth of human civilization.

When we gaze at these old photos, we are not only appreciating the beautiful pictures, but also feeling the atmosphere and emotions of that era. We can see the brilliance and darkness of human nature, and we can see the twists and turns and progress of history. These photos make us more deeply aware of the meaning and value of life, and also make us cherish the happiness and tranquility of the present.

In short, old photographs are a vivid scroll of history, and they tell the story of the past in silent language. Each photo is a microcosm of an era and a memory of a history. Let's walk into the world of these old photos, feel the stories that have been forgotten by time, and taste the unique charm of history.
