EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the capture of Ninh Binh by Mr. Hautefeuille, chief of the French armed forces in the province, against the insurrectional troops of Son Tay. The drawing, skillfully rendered by A. Ferdinandus, brings to life the intense battle that took place during the conquest of the Tong King Delta (or Tonkin) in 1873. The image showcases a scene filled with action and determination. French soldiers can be seen strategically positioned amidst ruins and debris as they engage in fierce combat with their opponents. The artist's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous depiction of facial expressions reflecting both courage and fear. This engraving was originally featured in Le tour du monde magazine directed by Edouard Charton in Paris back in 1877. It serves as a visual representation accompanying Mr. Romanet du Caillaud's story on "The Conquete of the Tong King Delta". Its inclusion adds depth and context to an already gripping narrative. Preserved within Leonard de Selva's private collection, this historical artwork continues to captivate viewers even today. It stands as a testament to human resilience and valor displayed during times of conflict and serves as a reminder of our shared pasts that shape our present realities.
