Within the Peihai — North Lake [Beijing]. Photographer: Mennie, Donald
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
General view of the wooden gate structure: 'This kind of p'ai lou, shored up with wooden poles, is not uncommon in Peking. To the foreign eye they lose much of their beauty, because we associate such buttresses with dangerous walls. It will be noted that in this specimen there is a pretence of also strengthening the roof with baby buttresses.'
