EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of ancient Chinese weapons and war engines, providing a glimpse into the military tactics of the past. The intricate details of shield 1, bow and arrow 2, axis 10, helmet 12, lance 8.9, quiver 4, and various other tools of warfare are beautifully hand-colored in this copperplate engraving from Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World" dating back to 1843.
Amongst these formidable weapons are also depicted innovative war engines such as the mobile siege ladder 13, mobile moat bridge 15, fire starter engine 14, explosive gunpowder wagon 16, and wall-gouging spears 6.7 - each designed for specific combat scenarios.
The attention to detail in this print by Andrea Bernieri is truly remarkable as it captures not only the physical attributes but also the historical significance behind each weapon and war engine. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into creating these tools for battle in ancient China.
This image is not just a visual representation but a window into a time when warfare was an art form that required skillful strategy and precision execution. It stands as a testament to human innovation in times of conflict and offers us insight into how civilizations protected themselves centuries ago.
