"Vieux Chinoise de Canton" is an albumen print portrait taken by Austrian photographer Raimund von Stillfried in the 1870s during his travels to China. This striking image, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, captures the weathered face of an elderly Chinese man in close-up, his gaze directed downward. The photograph, framed within an oval, demonstrates Stillfried's fascination with capturing the diverse faces of Asia, often showcasing the individuals' unique cultural attire and expressions.
