EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Japanese troops putting down riots in Seoul, Korea" captures a tumultuous moment in history. Taken by the French School in the 20th century, it showcases the brutal suppression of unrest by Japanese soldiers. The image depicts a scene of violence and chaos as soldiers clad in striking costumes clash with rioters on the streets of Seoul. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of colonialism and oppression. It was during this period that Emperor Gojong was forced to abdicate his throne, leading to widespread protests and resistance from Korean citizens. The intensity of the situation is palpable through the blurred motion captured within the frame. In this battle scene, bayonets are drawn, shots are fired, and bodies lay scattered across the ground - casualties of an uprising against foreign rule. The flags fluttering above symbolize both national pride and defiance against their oppressors. This powerful image encapsulates not only a specific moment in time but also represents larger themes such as conflict, brutality, and resistance. It serves as a poignant historical document that sheds light on an often overlooked chapter in Asian history. Displayed proudly within private collections today, this colour litho print continues to evoke strong emotions while reminding us never to forget those who fought for freedom amidst great adversity.
