MacDuff Everton: Summer Palace, Beijing, 1998
“MacDuff Everton updates travel photography in the same way that Ansel Adams updated 19th-century photography of the West. He captures strange and eloquent moments in which time, and the world, seem to stand still.”—Andy Grundberg, New York Times Photo Critic
A premier travel photographer, MacDuff Everton does much of his work in the panoramic format to give the viewer a greater sense of place. The subject of this photograph is the Summer Palace in Beijing, which is the largest imperial garden in all of China and is listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. This image was made in conjunction with an Aperture monograph and traveling exhibition entitled China: Fifty Years Inside the People’s Republic.
