EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving captures a scene from the Qing Dynasty in China, depicting a criminal being punished with the Bastinado. The brutal practice involves whipping across the thighs with a whip or bamboo cane as a form of punishment.
The image showcases the harsh reality of justice in ancient China, where criminals faced physical pain and humiliation for their wrongdoings. The detailed engraving by Andrea Freschi after Antoine Cardon brings to life the severity of this punishment, highlighting the agony and suffering endured by those subjected to such treatment.
As we reflect on this historical depiction, it serves as a reminder of how far society has come in terms of human rights and justice systems. While punishments like the Bastinado were once considered acceptable forms of discipline, today they are viewed as cruel and inhumane.
This print from Henri-Leonard-Jean-Baptiste Bertin and Jean Baptiste Joseph Breton's work "China, Its Costumes, Arts, Manufactures" offers us a glimpse into the past and allows us to appreciate how much progress has been made in creating more humane methods of dealing with crime and punishment. It is a powerful reminder of our collective evolution towards greater compassion and understanding in matters of law enforcement.
