EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sketches in Formosa, Farewell to Bankimsing" takes us on a visual journey back in time. Created by the talented artist Amedee Forestier in 1890, this print offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Taiwan (then known as Formosa). The scene depicted here is both enchanting and evocative. We see a group bidding farewell to Bankimsing, their expressions filled with mixed emotions - sadness at parting ways yet excitement for new adventures ahead. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke of the engraver's tool brings life to each character and element within the composition. The topography of Formosa serves as an exquisite backdrop for this poignant moment. Majestic mountains rise proudly in the distance while lush vegetation surrounds our protagonists. Horses stand patiently nearby, their presence adding a touch of elegance and grace. Forestier's skillful rendering transports us not only visually but emotionally as well. Through his artistry, we are transported back in time to witness this heartfelt farewell firsthand. This particular print comes from a private collection and was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News. Its inclusion within Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection ensures that its beauty will be appreciated by generations to come. In summary, "Sketches in Formosa, Farewell to Bankimsing" captures a tender moment frozen in time – one that invites us to reflect upon our own farewells and journeys through life
