Description:
- This photograph was taken near the Anting Gate (now Anding Men), looking east along the top of the northern wall of the Inner City of Peking (now Beijing). - As Harris points out, this view shows the guns aimed toward rather than outward from the city, as is suggested by the title of a published identical image, "Top of the Wall of Pekin Taken Possession of on October 1860, Showing the Chinese Guns Directed against Our Batteries" (Harris, p. 145).

Description:
- This photograph was taken from the top of the northern wall of Peking (now Beijing), near the Anting Gate (now Anding Men), looking into the northeastern section of the Inner City. - The title of a published identical image, "View of Confucian temple from An-ting Gate, Peking, October 1860" is inaccurate, as the Confucius Temple [also known as the Kongzimiao] is situated to the right of the buildings depicted in this view (Naquin, p. 444, map 12.1).

DR1981:0024
Description:
- DR1981:0024 shows a design for what appears to be an ornamental footbridge. No dimensions are given and materials are not indicated, but the structure could not have been erected at a very large scale. The road bed consists of three sections: a central flat section supported on a broad flat arch; and two gently-sloped side sections, each supported on seven small, round-headed arches. The span of the bridge is braced between two sets of double piers. Each of these four piers carries an octagonal kiosk consisting of closed panels below and an open framework above. At the centre of the bridge rises a pavilion formed of sixteen columns on a rectangular plan (six columns on each of the two long sides) supporting a curved gable roof. Above the road bed, the superstructure is decorated with banners, lanterns, fretwork, and inscriptions, all in a style of Chinese derivation.
