Details
Seen from above, the yamen is composed of numerous official and private buildings and gardens, enclosed within a wall. High posts mark its entrance. A number of Chinese boats are in the harbor. Three men, including a German officer, pose on the foreground.
Image Particulars: The scenery is fully Chinese, meaning that that this is an early stage of the German colonization which started in 1898.
