EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Les Monsters, the giant of China" takes us back to late 19th century Paris. The image is part of a private collection and was captured by an unknown photographer from that era. The subject of the photo is a Chinese man who goes by the name Les Monsters. His towering figure dominates the frame, showcasing his extraordinary height and commanding presence. Dressed in traditional Asian attire, he exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. The portrait offers a glimpse into a world where cultural diversity meets curiosity. It captures not only Les Monsters' physical appearance but also his unique personality, as seen through his confident gaze. Photographer Leonard de Selva skillfully captures every intricate detail with precision and artistry. The monochrome palette adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the textures in both Les Monsters' costume and surroundings. This photograph serves as a testament to the power of photography as it freezes moments in time for future generations to appreciate. It invites viewers to reflect upon notions of identity, representation, and human fascination with otherness. As we admire this remarkable piece from our past, let us remember its historical significance while appreciating its artistic value within today's context.
