PHOTOGRAPH GALLERY TWO

Stanley Till

The photographs appearing in this gallery come from the records of Stanley Till who served on HMS Scarab as she patrolled the Yangtse river in 1935. During that year a terrible flood occurred in the Yangtse basin, raising the river level more than 60 feet in a week and killing more than 140,000 people. Many of the photographs appearing here document this event. The photographs range in area from Shanghai to Chungking and provide some fascinating insight into the state of China during this period.

I am immensely grateful to the Till family for permitting these photographs to be posted on the site. Requests to use these photographs are welcome, but publication (by any means) may only occur with prior approval of the Till family. Any inquires regarding these photographs should be made to Michael Till.


All of the images below appear in both high resolution and low resolution formats. Viewers of the site who connect to the internet via a telephone modem should probably view the images in low resolution so that download times do not become prohibitive.
