The Snapshots in Time Collection
Street Scene with Rickshaws and Pedestrian, China-Burma Theater, WWII Era
A quiet street scene in wartime China, showing rickshaws and local residents going about daily life. Photographs like this, taken by American servicemen stationed in the China-Burma-India theater during World War II, offer a civilian counterpoint to combat imagery, documenting the communities and everyday world encountered far from the front lines.
