Forest of Steles, 1860
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite albumen print photograph taken by the renowned Italian photographer Felice Beato during the 1860s. This image transports us back to ancient China, showcasing a breathtaking landscape adorned with thousands of intricately carved steles. The Forest of Steles, also known as the Forest of Steles of Lougou, is located in the ancient Chinese city of Luoyang, Henan Province. This site holds immense historical significance as it is home to over 100,000 steles, many of which date back to the Han Dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE). These steles are inscribed with various forms of calligraphy, making them a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic achievements of China. Beato, a pioneering figure in 19th-century photography, skillfully captured the essence of this historic site. The monochromatic, black-and-white image highlights the intricate carvings on the steles, their inscriptions appearing as delicate, handwritten text against the stark, white background. The use of the albumen print process further accentuates the textures and details of the steles, resulting in a visually striking and evocative image. This photograph, now held in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of this ancient Chinese site. The Forest of Steles stands as a testament to the enduring power of art and history, and Felice Beato's photograph serves as a vital record of this remarkable place.
