Description | A collection of images from Raissa Page's trip to China in Aug-Sep 1978. These images were from a period when Westerners were only just being allowed into the country following the Cultural Revolution. They include rare images of a Chinese residential community for the elderly where women with bound feet (banned in the early 20th century but still practised in rural areas until the communist revolution) can be seen. The series includes some ephemera, including the itinerary, and a copy of the Observer Magazine which used some of the pictures |
