EDITORS COMMENTS
A Trip to Corea (engraving) captures a fascinating glimpse into the 19th-century journey through South Korea. This print, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration originally featured in The Illustrated London News on April 3,1886. The scene depicted is one of adventure and discovery as English explorers traverse the diverse topography of South Korea. Mounted on horses, they make their way through the vibrant landscape while carrying supplies and provisions for their expedition. As they approach the South Gate of Seoul, the capital city, they encounter native Koreans going about their daily lives. The bustling port town of Chemulpo comes alive with activity as locals navigate its busy streets. In Port Hamilton Isle, ships docked at the harbor hint at international trade connections. Amidst this lively atmosphere, a peculiar sight catches our attention - a pig being transported by bullock cart adds an element of surprise to this already intriguing journey. This engraving not only offers us a visual record of historical travel but also provides insights into Korean culture during that era. It serves as a window into Asia's rich heritage and invites us to reflect upon how much has changed since those times. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder without commercial intent or affiliation with any company.
