He is sitting in a chair in the middle of a gymnasium, most likely the West Gymnasium in Judd Gymnasia, wearing traditional Chinese garb, and playing a sanxian.The sanxian is a Chinese lute with three strings, a long fingerboard, and no fret. The body is traditionally made from snake skin stretched over a rectangular resonator with rounded edges. In the late 20th century, a four-stringed version was developed. Similar to the banjo, the sanxian has a dry, somewhat percussive tone and loud volume. Most musicians play with a plectrum (i.e. pick), but some use their fingernails. Although the sanxian has historically been one of the most popular Chinese folk instruments, recent years have seen a major decline in the number of classical sanxian players. This has caused some to worry that the instrument’s rich playing traditions may be lost forever.Minor deterioration around edges; Text on border reads, "YMCA College S.C. Wang 1917, Chinese Student.&quot, the name, though, has proved to be a mislabeling.
