why do you even bother posting the empress pics? -what? she's one of the worst empress ever during the Qing Dynasty. So cruel!
yeah she is... but we can't change history... i just thought it's interesting to c wot kinda clothes ppl wore back then and compare to wot they have on TV
yea i heared shes a blood sucker moved her way up. shes posing with foreigners, would that mean her powers were limited at the time?
wow those pix are really cool....seeing how they really looked like........very interesting...got any pix of how other ppl may have dressed? like the clergy and peasants....?
actually the Ching Dynasty wasn't that long ago... my great grandma lived thru the end of it... her dad had 1 wife n 7 mistress in the house ... scary
Those are cool pictures. It remind me of the Movie Duke Of Mount Deer 1996 with Steven Ma as the Emperor.
Wow...is cool! at least we can still have the opportunity to see the real Cixi (not in television drama only) Keep up da good work! Cheers
those women standing beside her in the 2nd last pic r not maids... they r princesses and emperor's concubines
I'm not sure if it's true, but I think back then "Fat" people consider beautiful because they are well fed (like richer family)
