EDITORS COMMENTS
The War in China: The Fighting at Tientsin, July 1900," is a powerful and evocative print depicting a pivotal moment in the Battle of Tientsin during the Boxer Rebellion. Created by H.M.P., this engraving captures the intensity and chaos of the conflict as a multinational military force, representing the Eight-Nation Alliance, storms the gates of the city to rescue a besieged population of foreign nationals. The image shows a group of determined soldiers, led by a commanding officer, making their way through the entrance of the city gate. The scene is chaotic, with the sound of gunfire ringing in the air and the smoke from explosions obscuring the view. Dead bodies and injured men lie scattered on the ground, a stark reminder of the human cost of war. In the background, sailors from various nations can be seen manning their guns on ships anchored in the harbor, ready to provide support. The print also shows the way into the city, with the long, winding road leading to the gate and the walls of the city looming in the distance. This print is a poignant reminder of the Battle of Tientsin, a significant event in the history of China and the world. It is a testament to the courage and determination of the soldiers who fought to protect the lives of foreign nationals and to restore order in the face of the Boxer Rebellion. The print is taken from "Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX," published by Cassell and Company, Limited, in London, Paris, New York, and Melbourne. It is a valuable historical record of a pivotal moment in the 20th century and a testament to the power of art to capture the essence of history.
