Portraits of late Qing Dynasty, rare old color high-definition photos (Part 2)

This group of old photos of Qing Dynasty portraits are Austrian born painter and photographer Feng· Baron Raymond (1839—— 1911) went to Guangdong, Shanghai and other places in China to shoot in the 1870s. Both the shooting level and the later painting are first-class

Most of the subjects taken by Raymond in Guangdong, Shanghai and other places in China are civilians, and the close-up shooting method of his portrait is completely different from the Chinese habit of taking photos of many front and whole bodies. Although his shooting is all about posing, the characteristics of the times of the characters are extremely distinctive. The clothes of the characters and women’s big feet are very different from those of women with small feet in the north

This group of photos is from the Metropolitan Museum of Art,“ Metropolis” In 2005, it spent a huge amount of money to purchase and digitize it, and also selflessly provided appreciation to the world

这组清代人物肖像老照片是出生于奥地利的画家、摄影师冯·莱蒙德男爵（ 1839——1911）于19世纪七十年代到中国广东、上海等地所拍摄，无论拍摄水平,还是后期上色都堪称一流。

莱蒙德在中国广东、上海等地所拍摄的对象多为平民百姓，他肖像的特写拍摄手法与中国人多正面、全身的留影拍照习惯完全不同。虽然他的拍摄都是摆拍，但人物的时代特征却极为鲜明突出，人物的衣着、妇女的大脚与北方小脚妇女有着极大的不同。

本组照片来自大都会艺术博物馆，“大都会”2005年花费巨资将其购入并做了数字化处理，还无私地提供全世界欣赏。
