EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Conflict between HMS Cormorant and the Savages of Formosa" takes us back to a momentous event in maritime history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intensity and drama of a clash between two worlds. The scene depicts the HMS Cormorant, a formidable ship from the Royal Navy, engaged in battle with indigenous tribes on the island of Formosa (now known as Taiwan). The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on June 15,1867. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to a time when exploration and colonization were at their peak. The intricate details showcase not only the grandeur of naval warfare but also provide insight into topographical elements of Taiwan's landscape during that era. Intriguingly referred to as "savages" in those times, these indigenous people fiercely defended their land against foreign intruders. This engraving serves as both a testament to their resilience and an acknowledgment of Britain's military might. Through this image, we gain glimpses into the complex dynamics between colonial powers and native populations during an age marked by territorial disputes. It reminds us that history is often shaped through conflicts such as these – where cultures collide amidst aspirations for dominance and control. Preserved within private collections today thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts, this print continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic prowess.
