Mr Li Antiques, Saigon, 1905.

Mr Li was the proud owner of a beautiful Asian antiques shop on Catinat street, in the town centre of Saigon. He collected objects from all over Indochina: ancient artworks, furniture made of precious materials, traditional ceramics, Khmer sculptures alluding to the Man-God, and fine silk works.

Every night, Mr Li went home by tilbury. On the way, he would pass the Continental Hotel where many of his customers were staying. Coming from all over the world, they visited his shop, seeking unique pieces to fill their cabinets of wonders.
