Open a small window for the late Qing pictorial newspaper, connect with the social and cultural “atmosphere” of the late Qing Dynasty, use pictorial newspapers to intervene in history, and explain the late Qing Dynasty through images. Now, the late Qing pictorial newspaper is shining brightly, reading the diverse styles of life in the late Qing Dynasty, and understanding the various customs and anecdotes of the pictorial newspaper. This book selects twenty-eight late Qing pictorial newspapers other than Dianshizhai Pictorial, all of which follow the three principles of being more important, surviving in the world, and relatively exquisite in production. Each pictorial newspaper is accompanied by ten to twenty images, and through twenty short articles, it introduces twenty-eight late Qing pictorial newspapers, presenting readers with various aspects of late Qing social life, education, culture, and folk etiquette. These late Qing pictorial posters that hover between “entertainment” and “enlightenment” have a decisive role in directly touching the late Qing Dynasty for modern people, and also provide us with a valuable perspective to understand the late Qing Dynasty.
