Arthur Assault Counter Day Light Torpedo
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts a pivotal moment in the Battle of Port Arthur during the Russian-Japanese War of 1904-1905. The scene takes place on the 8th of February 1904, as Japanese forces launch a bold assault on the Russian counter-torpedo boat Reichitelme, which is anchored in the Ci-Fu port. The image, captured in daylight and rendered in vibrant colors, offers a striking contrast between the dynamic action on the water and the tranquil, outdoor setting. The Battle of Port Arthur was a significant turning point in the war, as it marked the first major victory for the Japanese against the Russian navy. The assault on the Reichitelme was part of a larger Japanese amphibious operation aimed at seizing control of the port and cutting off the Russian supply lines. The courage and determination of the Japanese forces, as depicted in this engraving, ultimately proved decisive in the battle. This historical print, which originated in France and is now housed in the National Library, provides a unique and intriguing glimpse into the past. The intricate details of the boats, soldiers, and explosions bring the action to life, making it an essential addition to any history or military collection. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and sacrifice displayed by the soldiers on both sides during this pivotal conflict in world history.
