EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Allies in China, Looting in Peking" offers a glimpse into a turbulent period of history. Created by Frederic de Haenen in 1901, it depicts the aftermath of military conquests and the resulting plunder during the Boxer Rebellion. In this scene, we witness a chaotic spectacle unfolding on the streets of Peking. Carts and wagons are piled high with stolen treasures as soldiers from various Allied forces oversee the transport of their ill-gotten gains. The image captures both the scale and audacity of looting that took place during this time. The composition is rich with symbolism and contrasts. On one hand, there is an undeniable sense of triumph for the European powers involved - France prominently represented among them - as they assert their dominance over Asia. However, juxtaposed against this triumph is an air of unease; Chinese locals can be seen observing these events with expressions ranging from disbelief to resignation. Haenen's meticulous engraving technique brings every detail to life: intricate patterns adorning stolen artifacts, weary faces etched with lines telling tales untold. This print serves as a stark reminder not only of historical events but also raises questions about imperialism and its consequences. Preserved within private collections until now, this lithograph provides us with a window into a pivotal moment in world history when East met West amidst conflict and cultural clashes.
