Summary[edit]

Description
English:
The Deserted Hankow Bund, China, 1911
Black and white lantern slide showing Hankow (Hankou) Bund with few pedestrians, and boats on the Yangtze (Changjiang) river. After Hankou was opened up to foreign trade in 1862, foreign concessions lined up along the Yangtze on Hankou Bund, and this strip would have been a bustling business area in more peaceful times. This slide comes from a collection held by the Church of Scotland and generated by the medical missionary Charles Somerville, who worked for the London Missionary Society in Hankou from 1904 to 1914.
