Scott, Howard M.2026-03-202026-03-202006-091175-3099https://hdl.handle.net/10289/18130As Artist in Residence at the Art Centre of Xiamen University in 2005, I had an opportunity to visit Xiamen (formerly known as Amoy) on many occasions and to photograph examples of the colonial style architecture. Following a brief introduction to the history of Xiamen/ Amoy, I provide a selection of these photographs to provide some sense of the architectural novelty of this fascinating place whose buildings are symbolic of a significant aspect of China's rich and varied history.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Gulangyu Qu (Xiamen Shi, China)colonial architecturephotography and societyChinese historyJournal Article10.15663/K10.141233021-5668
