EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history. The scene depicts a conference of international commanders who have gathered together in an effort to relieve the besieged city of Peking. The tension and urgency can be felt as these military leaders from various nations come together to strategize and coordinate their efforts. The composition is filled with a diverse array of characters, each representing their respective countries. We see Captain Maccullagh, Captain De Morrell, Admiral Seymour, and even an Italian commander among others. Their uniforms and flags proudly display their nationalities, highlighting the global nature of this mission. The artist Henry Marriott Paget has masterfully captured the gravity of the situation through his attention to detail and skillful use of light and shadow. The expressions on the faces of these commanders reveal determination mixed with concern for the task at hand. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even in times of conflict, collaboration between nations is possible. It showcases not only military prowess but also diplomacy as these leaders work towards a common goal – relieving Peking from its dire circumstances. "The First Attempt to Relieve Peking" stands as a testament to human resilience and international cooperation when faced with adversity. It reminds us that unity can overcome any obstacle, no matter how daunting it may seem.
