EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting engraving from 1868 captures a moment of tension and anticipation as a Chinese criminal awaits interrogation in CANTON, China. The prisoner's expression is inscrutable, his eyes fixed on some unseen point in the distance. Surrounding him are symbols of both confinement and sustenance - wooden barrels that may contain beer or water, and a hen pecking at the ground nearby. The scene is rich with detail that speaks to the complexities of justice, tradition, and civilization in 19th century China. The presence of an animal amidst this human drama serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of all living beings. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The engraving captures not just the physical features of its subjects, but also their inner thoughts and emotions. It is a testament to the power of art to transcend time and space, allowing us to connect with people who lived centuries ago. Through this print, we are invited to contemplate questions about punishment, guilt, innocence, and redemption. What led this man to be sitting here awaiting interrogation? What will be revealed during his questioning? These mysteries linger in the air around him as he sits stoically waiting for his fate to unfold.
