Dealer Notes
Heinz von Perckhammer (1895-1965) was an Austro-Hungarian captured at the siege of Tsingtao in 1917 by the Japanese; he became a prisoner of war, and remained in China after his release. His photographs of Macao and Beijing street scenes were first published in book form in Berlin, and the present selection offers a nice sample of his work.
