China Bound Foot Lotus Shoe Woman Custom Tradition Footstool Vtg. Photo 19thC.

This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a close-up of a Chinese woman's bound foot resting on a small stool. On the floor next to her are the tiny, embroidered lotus shoe and the binding cloth. Foot binding was a custom in China for centuries, where young girls' feet were bound to keep them small, a practice considered a symbol of beauty and high social status.
