EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Lao Tzu, an enigmatic figure in ancient Chinese history. The image, taken in 1922 by an unknown creator, captures the essence of this revered philosopher and writer. Lao Tzu is widely known as the founder of philosophical Taoism and is reputed to have authored the influential text, the Tao Te Ching. Dressed in vibrant red robes adorned with intricate decorative patterns, Lao Tzu exudes a sense of wisdom and spirituality. His attire reflects both his occupation as a philosopher and his deep connection to Chinese culture and religion. This portrait offers a glimpse into the clothing styles prevalent during China's Qing Dynasty. The photograph transports us back to early 20th century China, where legends and mythology intertwined with daily life. Lao Tzu's serene expression hints at his profound understanding of life's mysteries and his role as a legendary figure in Chinese literature. Preserved within "Myths and Legends of China" by E. T. C Werner, this print serves as a visual testament to Lao Tzu's enduring legacy. It invites us to contemplate the teachings he imparted over two millennia ago while reminding us that even today, his philosophy continues to inspire seekers of truth around the world.
