In this vivid illustration for The Illustrated London News, dated 1 April 1899, we witness an intriguing scene unfold before our eyes. A group of coolies can be seen crossing into Russian territory under the watchful gaze of Chinese frontier guards. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as these laborers traverse the rugged landscape on horseback while Cossacks patrol nearby. Frenzeny's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the majestic horses that carry the coolies to their destination, to the stoic presence of both Chinese and Russian military personnel. This artwork not only showcases historical events but also highlights cultural diversity and geopolitical dynamics between two powerful nations.
