Private collection, California.
Exhibited
(Probably) San Francisco, California Palace of the Legion of Honor, Jules Pages Memorial Exhibition, September 1946, no. 24.
Pages is well-regarded for his unmitigated scenes of the hustle and bustle of San Francisco's Chinatown. Often tightly cropped, his compositions reflect a journalistic eye, unlike some of his contemporaries whose focus was on the picturesque through a romanticized lens.
