The Yihetuan Movement, also known as the Boxer Rebellion, was a significant uprising in China from 1898 to 1901. This engraving depicts one of the many incidents that occurred during this tumultuous period. The rebellion aimed to expel foreign influence and restore traditional Chinese values. In 1909, this print captures the intensity of the Boxers' revolt in China. The rebellion spread rapidly across the country, targeting foreigners and Chinese Christians alike. Executions of mandarins in Pao-Ting-Fou were carried out as a brutal display of power by the rebels. Amidst these chaotic events, this black-and-white photo shows the British Embassy during the Siege of Peking in 1900. Foreign diplomats and their families sought refuge within its walls as they faced constant threats from Boxer forces. Monsignor Alphonse Favier played a crucial role during these turbulent times. As Bishop of Peking, he navigated through dangerous territories to provide support and guidance to both Chinese Catholics and foreign residents. International involvement was inevitable during this conflict. Sikh soldiers from the British Indian Army were deployed to China in 1900, as seen in another black-and-white photo. Their presence demonstrated global alliances against the Boxers. British and Japanese officers united forces against common adversaries during this era, exemplified by yet another striking photograph capturing their collaboration on Chinese soil. Even amidst war-torn landscapes, cultural traditions persevered. The Pipe Band of the 4th Gurkha Rifles showcased their musical talents while stationed in China—a reminder that humanity endures even amid chaos. The fighting at Tientsin (now Tianjin) became emblematic of resistance against rebel forces—this event is captured twice: once through an image depicting intense combat between international troops and Boxers; then again through a print illustrating scenes from battles fought there.
