How does Cixi like photography videos?

People like taking pictures not only because the process of taking pictures is often full of fun, but also because a small photo can record people's lives. Since photography technology was introduced into the palace, many curious people have tried it. The favorite of the Qing palace is Cixi. According to historical records, Cixi loved taking pictures all her life. Why do foreigners get angry when they take pictures of her in history?

For a woman, it can't be said that the most important thing is appearance. Women please themselves. Cixi, as the queen mother of a country and a symbol of the national image, is even more so. Her love of beauty can be said to be famous. What's the point if a woman doesn't care about her appearance and how she looks in the eyes of others? According to historical records, Empress Dowager Cixi has been using all kinds of modern skin care products and cosmetics for beauty makeup, and attaches great importance to her appearance, allowing no mistakes.

During the Opium War, western photography technology was introduced to China, and Empress Dowager Cixi was full of curiosity about this new gadget. Once she asked a foreign photographer to take a picture of her, which was the first time Cixi took a picture with a camera. Cixi in the photo can be described as vivid and highly similar to herself, but Cixi was furious after seeing the photo. What happened? It turns out that the camera is a rigid machine. Unlike a painter, she knows how to correct defects actively. The shooting was exactly the same. The photographer photographed all the zits on Cixi's face. Cixi saw that she was old and ugly in the photo, and she didn't want to accept herself like this. Of course, she will be furious.

Which woman wants to see herself old and ugly? With the development of modern beauty technology and retouching technology, we have lost the ugly girl in the eyes of others, but we should not rely too much on these technologies. In the beauty camera, we are ourselves, but in the mirror, we should learn to accept our imperfections and reconcile with our true selves.
