| 69 | Okay, hello. | 好吧,哈啰。 |
| 70 | So we're gathered here today to give a little bit of a talk, I think, | 我们今天聚集在这里 来谈谈,我想, |
| 71 | really spurred by the publication of Power and Perspective Early Photography in China by PEM and | 由PEM和PEM在中国出版的《权力与视角早期摄影》推动。 |

| 78 | essays and a number of entries about specific works. | 散文和一些关于具体作品的条目. |

| 81 | So to begin, we're going to give a little bit of a walkthrough of the exhibition and some of the | 开始,我们将 给一点点 通过展览和一些 |
| 82 | main ideas and sections, and then I think we'll do questions and answer afterwards. | 主要的想法和章节,然后我想我们会做问答之后。 |
| 83 | So the exhibition | 所以,展览 |
| 84 | itself is really about the adoption and introduction of photography in 19th century China. | 本身其实是19世纪中国通过和引进摄影. |
| 85 | We wanted to think about the stories that these photographs can tell and what might not be, | 我们想考虑一下这些照片能够描述的故事 以及可能不是的故事, |
| 86 | what other, the specific stories that they tell might not actually be included in those stories. | 其它什么,他们所讲的具体故事 可能并不包含在这些故事中。 |
| 87 | So the way that we begin is actually with this camera. | 因此,我们开始的方式其实是用这个摄像机。 |
| 88 | I think we all have cameras in our pockets | 我想我们口袋里都有摄像头 |
| 89 | now, but if you told that to a 19th century photographer, that would just blow their mind, | 现在,但是如果你告诉一个19世纪的摄影师, 那只会让他们大吃一惊, |
| 90 | because what you're seeing in front of you is a camera from the 1850s, an American-made camera, | 因为你眼前看到的是1850年代的摄像机 美国制造的摄像机 |
| 91 | very, very similar to the ones that were imported to China at the time to create all the photographs | 非常,非常相似的是当时进口到中国的 制作所有照片 |
| 92 | that you're about to see. | 你即将看到的。 |
| 93 | And so beginning the show this way allows us to think a little bit | 因此,开始这个节目 这样让我们思考一下 |
| 94 | more about the materiality or the objects that photographs are. | 更多关于照片的重要性或物体。 |
| 95 | And you can see that it's really | 你可以看到这是真的 |
| 96 | large, it's bulky, it's fragile, they're all made with glass plates. | 体积大,体积大,体积脆弱,都用玻璃板制成. |
| 97 | And so you needed things like | 所以,你需要的东西 像 |
| 98 | time, money, assistance, and more than a little bit of luck to make any of the photographs that | 时间,金钱,援助, 和多一点运气 拍摄任何照片 |
| 99 | we're about to see. | 我们即将看到。 |
| 100 | So I mentioned how old the Peabody Essex Museum is and these very long ties | 所以我提到皮博迪·埃塞克斯博物馆的历史 以及这些很长的纽带 |
| 101 | with China. | 与中国。 |
| 102 | Pem holds an enormous collection of 19th century photographs from China, so we're | Pem收藏了大量来自中国的19世纪照片 所以我们是 |
| 103 | only showing a tiny fraction of the collection in either the exhibition or the book. | 在展览或书中只展示一小部分藏品. |
| 104 | They're more in | 他们更多了 |
| 105 | the book than in the show, but that's still less than 10%. | 这本书比节目里写得还少 但还不到10% |
| 106 | But I think what also distinguishes | 但我认为什么是区别 |
| 107 | this collection besides its scale is that these works of art came into the collection as new | 除了规模之外 这些艺术品作为新作品进入收藏 |
| 108 | photography in the 19th century. | 19世纪的摄影. |
| 109 | This was new photography brought back by these merchants who | 这是这些商人带来的新照片 |
| 110 | were actively trading in China. | 活跃在中国的贸易。 |
| 111 | So unlike many other public collections of this kind of material, | 不像其他很多公共收藏 这种材料, |
| 112 | we very often know who, when people bought these photographs, where they bought them. | 我们经常知道,当人们购买这些照片时, 在哪里购买这些照片。 |
| 113 | And we often have related either objects or archival records related to those people as well, | 我们经常有与这些人有关的物品或档案记录, |
| 114 | so it created a wonderful interconnected web of information for us to tell this story. | 因此,它创造了一个奇妙的互联互通的信息网络 为我们讲述这个故事。 |
| 115 | Okay, so the first gallery or first section of the show is called the Imperial Eye. | 好吧,所以第一个画廊 或节目的第一部分 叫做帝国眼。 |
| 116 | Aim, | 目标 |
| 117 | shoot, capture, that's the language of photography, but you'll notice that it's | 拍摄,捕捉,那是摄影的语言, 但你会注意到,这是 |
| 118 | also the language of weapons. | 还有武器的语言。 |
| 119 | And that's really here we're trying to address the intertwining | 这才是我们想要解决的 |
| 120 | histories of colonialism and photography. | 殖民主义历史与摄影. |
| 121 | Photography entered China at the end of the | 摄影进入中国末期 |
| 122 | First Opium War alongside weapons and on gunships from Europe. | 第一次鸦片战争与武器和来自欧洲的炮兵战争。 |
| 123 | And so that's the sort of entrance | 所以这就是那种入口 |
| 124 | of photography. | 摄影 |
| 125 | And we're trying to tell this story here through the work of Felice Biato. | 我们试图通过费利斯·比亚托的作品 来讲述这个故事。 |
| 126 | Biato was an Italian British soldier who was embedded in the British army, and so he tracked | 比亚托是一名意大利的英国士兵 他被嵌入了英国军队 所以他追踪到 |
| 127 | the army's progress as it went from Hong Kong, the new colony, up to Beijing for the Second Opium War. | 军队从新殖民地香港进军 一直到北京进行第二次鸦片战争 |
| 128 | And throughout his photographs, you can see that he's telling a very particular story about | 在他的照片中,你可以看到 他讲述了一个非常特别的故事 |
| 129 | British dominance in China. | 英国在中国的统治地位. |
| 130 | So in this one, this is the first photograph in the show, and it shows | 所以在这张照片里 这是节目中的第一张照片 它显示 |
| 131 | how he's positioned himself on the Hong Kong peak, Victoria Peak, and he's looking down at | 他是如何定位自己 在香港高峰,维多利亚峰, 他俯视 |
| 132 | the harbor. | 港湾。 |
| 133 | And what he really wants to capture is all of these ships that are waiting in the | 他真正想要抓的就是所有那些正在等待的船 |
| 134 | harbor, these British ships that are waiting to go up to Beijing. | 港口,这些英国船只 等待上北京。 |
| 135 | And so it's a photograph | 所以这是一张照片 |
| 136 | that was very much used or intentionally made to telegraph the power of the military. | 这被大量使用或故意用来电报军队的权力。 |
| 137 | However, | 不过, |
| 138 | I think one of our strategies in this exhibition is to actually ask you to go really, really deep | 我认为我们这次展览的策略之一是 让你真正,真正深入 |
| 139 | in focus and look at the very tiny details that these photographs provide, but also think outside | 观察这些照片提供的极小的细节, |
| 140 | of the frame. | 边框。 |
| 141 | What are the historical, political, social contexts that we might not be seeing in | 我们可能看不到的历史、政治、社会背景是什么? |
| 142 | the photograph, but have informed everything that these photographs are showing us? | 照片,但已经告知所有 这些照片显示我们? |
| 143 | And so with | 所以说 |
| 144 | Yato, we know that he was holding this huge camera and he had lots and lots of help and laborers | 亚藤,我们知道他拿着这台大摄像机 他有很多帮助和工人 |
| 145 | that were actually helping to move this camera throughout the battle scenes. | 在战斗场景中帮助移动了摄像机 |
| 146 | And so you never | 所以你从不 |
| 147 | see the Chinese labor that's going into making these photographs. | 看中国的劳工 正在制作这些照片。 |
| 148 | The only one that I think he | 我唯一认为他 |
| 149 | has in which a person, a Chinese person, is deliberately put there is the photograph on the | 里面刻着一个中国人 刻意把照片放在那里 |
| 150 | left, in which you see this laborer directly underneath the British flag. | 左边,你看到这个工人 直接在英国国旗下。 |
| 151 | And so a lot of | 这么多 |
| 152 | these photographs, you can see they're showing you one thing, but we want to remind people that | 这些照片,你可以看到, 他们正在展示你一件事, 但我们想提醒人们, |
| 153 | there's also all these other factors beyond the frame. | 还有其他超出框架的因素 |
| 154 | So, Yato's visual narrative of the | 所以,矢藤的视觉叙述 |
| 155 | Beijing siege, the British siege on Beijing, really culminates in the capture of Yuanmingyuan, | 北京围城,英国对北京的围城,最终真的占领了元明远, |
| 156 | the imperial summer palaces right outside of Beijing. | 帝国的夏日宫殿就在北京之外 |

| 159 | And we know that this particular photograph is of a building that is in Yiheyuan, | 我们知道这张照片 是在宜兴的一座建筑 |
| 160 | but that he was there actually taking photographs of the entire sort of destruction. | 但是他在那里 拍摄了整个破坏的照片 |
| 161 | And I find | 我发现 |
| 162 | this photograph particularly haunting because he wrote underneath it that it was the imperial | 这张照片特别缠绕 因为他写道,这是帝国 |
| 163 | summer palace before the burning. | 火烧前夏宫. |
| 164 | He knew that this was going to be burned. | 他知道这将会被烧毁 |

| 167 | And he took one last photograph before it was going to be destroyed. | 他拍了最后一张照片 才被摧毁 |
| 168 | And so | 这样 |
| 169 | there's a haunting quality to it because it sort of is the last picture before all this destruction. | 因为它是所有破坏之前的最后一幅画 |
| 170 | So this gallery really is, it shows the before the burning and then we have a section that's | 所以这个画廊真的, 它显示在燃烧之前, 然后我们有一个部分是 |
