Port Arthur - Lushunkou - China

A panoramic view of Lushunkou (a district in the municipality of Dalian, Liaoning province, also called Lushun City or Lushun Port, formerly known as both Port Arthur and Ryojun). During the Russo-Japanese war, the Russians surrendered Port Arthur to the Japanese after nearly a years siege: the Japanese expended 58, 000 killed or wounded to obtain the town. As can be seen here, Lushunkou boasts an excellent natural harbour, the possession and control of which became a casus belli (justification for the act of war) during the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905)"

EDITORS COMMENTS
This panoramic print showcases the breathtaking beauty and historical significance of Lushunkou, a district located in the municipality of Dalian, Liaoning Province, China. Formerly known as Port Arthur or Ryojun, this area has a rich and complex history, particularly during the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905). The natural harbor of Lushunkou, as evidenced in this image, was a valuable asset that became a casus belli, or justification for the act of war, between Russia and Japan. The Russians, who had controlled the port since 1898, were eventually forced to surrender after a grueling year-long siege. The Japanese, who expended an immense amount of resources, with approximately 58,000 killed or wounded, gained possession of this strategic location. The golden hills and serene waters of Lushunkou, as depicted in this image, offer a stark contrast to the brutal conflict that once took place here. This panoramic view serves as a reminder of the historical significance of this district and the pivotal role it played in shaping the course of East Asian history.
