EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The roads at Chefoo seen from the hills, China, 1898" takes us back in time to a bygone era. The image, captured by Christian Wilhelm Allers, showcases the bustling transportation scene of late 19th century China. From atop the hills, we are presented with a breathtaking view of the Yellow Sea off the coast of what is now Yantai. In this picturesque landscape, steamships and junks gracefully navigate through the waters while rocky coastal formations add drama to the scenery. This snapshot not only captures an industrial moment but also offers a glimpse into Chinese culture and geography during that period. Allers' lithograph skillfully portrays both the beauty and significance of water transport in this region. As we delve into this historical piece from his book "Rund um die Erde", it becomes evident that Allers was not just an artist but also a storyteller who transported readers on journeys across different countries. "The roads at Chefoo seen from the hills" serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over time while highlighting its importance in connecting nations and facilitating trade. It stands as a testament to Allers' talent for capturing moments that transcend time and allow us to appreciate our rich cultural heritage.
