Features: A single photograph, a piece of history. Old Photos is preserving many precious historical fragments for humanity, reflecting the survival and development of humans over the past hundred years. Looking back at these details holds special significance! Each photograph contains a genuine and moving story. Here, they convey to us everything that modern society does not know—such as personal experiences and the history of the War of Resistance Against Japan—all of which involve famous figures and events. Photos can retain more of the truth of history, thanks to their irreplaceable and unalterable independent voice. Unfortunately, when narrating history, the independent voice of photos is often not given the respect it deserves. Even in books that heavily use photographs, they are merely supplementary evidence for historical conclusions or illustrations of certain historical concepts. Old Photos attempts to change this by placing photos at the center of observation, allowing the photos themselves to speak. Sometimes, the messages and meanings contained in photos go far beyond what a few simple historical conclusions can encompass. Only by acknowledging and listening to the voice of photos can history truly come alive.
