Freer, Charles Lang · 1906 · Shanghai : Kelley & Walsh · 2 pictures

This is a journal issued by the North-China Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, published in Shanghai by Kelley & Walsh in 1906 under Charles Lang Freer's name, aimed at scholars of Chinese history and civilization. The two photographic plates show a walled gate with a tiled roof and a bearded, dark-coated older man in a studio portrait, both in plain halftone with captions beneath, offering a designer sober documentary imagery of early twentieth-century China and its scholarly community.
