Hanz von Peckhamer (1895-1965) was a renowned German professional photographer, celebrated for his deep interest in Chinese culture and his distinctive photographic perspective. Born into a family of photographers, he was exposed to the art from an early age. Peckhamer began photographing Chinese subjects as early as 1915, during his service in the Austrian Navy aboard the cruiser SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth, which was stationed off Tianjin’s Dagu Port. When World War I broke out, the ship was scuttled in Jiaozhou Bay during the Siege of Qingdao, and Peckhamer, along with his comrades, was imprisoned at Wanshou Temple. During this confinement, he extensively photographed his surroundings, later recalling, “There, I captured almost everything I could. Every time I opened my eyes, these images were before me.”

汉茨·冯·佩克哈默（Hanz von Peckhamer，1895-1965年）是德国著名职业摄影家，以其对中国文化的深厚兴趣和独特视角而闻名。他出身于摄影世家，父母均从事摄影工作，自幼便接触摄影艺术。佩克哈默最早开始拍摄中国题材可追溯至1915年，当时他服役于奥地利海军，乘坐巡洋舰“伊丽莎白皇后号”远赴东方，长期驻扎在中国天津大沽口外海。一战爆发后，该舰在青岛参与日德战争并自沉于胶州湾，佩克哈默及其战友被关押于万寿寺。囚禁期间，他利用有限的时间和资源拍摄大量中国风光和日常生活影像，为后来的创作奠定基础。他曾回忆：“在那里我几乎拍了所有我能拍摄的东西。一睁开眼睛就是这些图片。”

After the war, Peckhamer returned to China multiple times, traveling across the country to capture Beijing’s streets, local customs, and Chinese nude art. He published China’s first nude photography collection, Hundred Beauties, and produced influential photo albums such as Beijing and China and the Chinese, documenting the social life and cultural landscape of early 20th-century China. His work is notable not only for its artistic innovation but also for its mastery of light, composition, and the human figure, earning recognition in both European and Chinese photographic circles.

Peckhamer’s photographs hold significant historical and cultural value and are preserved in major museums and private collections, including the Berlin State Museums, the Munich Museum of Photography, and several photographic art institutions in China. His works are frequently exhibited in international photography shows and are regarded as an important bridge between Eastern and Western photographic traditions. Through his profound artistic skill and extensive body of work, Peckhamer left a lasting legacy in the development of 20th-century European and Chinese photography.

战后，佩克哈默多次重返中国，足迹遍及大江南北，拍摄内容涵盖北京街头、民俗风情及中国裸体艺术。他出版了中国首本人体摄影集《百美影》，并创作了《北京》《中国与中国人》等影集，记录了20世纪初中国社会的独特面貌和人文风情。这些作品不仅在艺术表现上极具创新性，其对光影、构图和人物形象的把握也为欧洲和中国摄影界所推崇。＝＝

佩克哈默的摄影作品具有重要的历史和文化价值，现被多家知名博物馆及私人收藏机构收藏，包括德国柏林国家博物馆、慕尼黑摄影博物馆以及中国多家摄影艺术馆。他的作品常在国际摄影展览中展出，被认为是东西方摄影交流史上的重要桥梁，同时也是中国民俗与人体摄影艺术研究的重要资料。佩克哈默凭借其深厚的艺术造诣和丰富的创作经历，为20世纪中期欧洲与中国摄影艺术的发展留下了宝贵遗产。>>返回>>
