?This photograph was taken at #Sanjiaodi, a small triangular-shaped area within the #Tianqiao market. ?Sanjiaodi was formed in 1915 and was a place where #acrobats, street traders and #entertainers performing popular talking and singing routines congregated. After 1956 it gradually became a public housing area.

In 'A photographer in Old Peking' (p. 158), Hedda Morrison wrote that these days 'Chinese acrobatics and juggling are world-famous but they are descended from an ancient form of popular entertainment which was always seen at T'ien Ch'iao during #holidays and festivals. Children started to train in these skills almost as soon as they could walk'. #POTD #tbt #ChineseAcrobat #HeddaMorrison #FemalePhotographer #wow #hectic
