EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a significant moment in history - the first arrival of the Chinese Expeditionary Force in China, March 1860. The panoramic view allows us to immerse ourselves in the scene, capturing every detail of this monumental event. The image showcases an impressive collaboration between two talented photographers, Felice Beato and Henry Hering. Beato, originally from Italy but residing in England at the time, brings his expertise behind the lens while Hering contributes his British sensibilities to create a visually stunning composition. As we gaze upon this albumen silver print, we are transported to that historic day when foreign forces arrived on Chinese soil. The sheer magnitude of their presence is evident as soldiers stand tall with determination and purpose. Their uniforms proudly display their allegiance to their respective nations. Intriguingly, this print does not mention any commercial use or company affiliation. Instead, it invites us purely into its historical narrative without any distractions or ulterior motives. Through this remarkable photograph's lens, we catch a glimpse of an important chapter in China's past - one marked by cultural exchange and geopolitical shifts. It serves as a testament to photography's ability to freeze moments in time and allow future generations like ours to bear witness to these significant events.
