EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating litho print that transports us back to the tumultuous era of the Boxer Rebellion. The image, created by Johann Nepomuk Schonberg and published in The Illustrated London News on January 5,1901, showcases a poignant scene of fallen comrades being honored at their graves. Set against the backdrop of Peking's South West Gate, we witness German lancers and Austrian officers joining forces with other allies to pay tribute to their fallen brethren. This solemn occasion takes place on All Souls' Day, as soldiers from different nations come together to remember those who sacrificed their lives for a cause they believed in. The engraving captures not only the military might of these allied forces but also highlights the cultural diversity present during this historic event. Chinese locals can be seen observing from a distance, representing both curiosity and respect for these foreign troops fighting on their soil. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the shared humanity that transcends borders and conflicts. It symbolizes unity amidst adversity and honors all those who have fought bravely for peace throughout history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to delve into an important chapter in Asian history while appreciating Schonberg's artistic prowess.
