comprising 119 photographs, some of personal nature and showing the life of the Schr?der family and friends in China, for example in their Shanghai residence at Bubbling Well Road (Now Nanjingxi Road) and during their travels in Hangzhou and through the Three Gorges to Chongqing. There is for example an image of the Confucius Temple in Chongqing and several images of the cliff dwellings in the Gorges. These photographs are of a particularly poignant nature as many of the landmarks and sceneries are now submerged under water due to the construction of the Three Gorges Dam. There are also professional photographs taken by Thomas Child (1841-1898), including several shots of the Peking Observatory (119)
