EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Chinese Army (Speeding the Parting Stranger)" by C. E. Fripp, we are transported back to the year 1895, at the end of the First Sino-Japanese War. The artist's final impression of the Chinese Army upon leaving Peking (Beijing) is vividly captured in this image. The landscape depicted in this photograph is rugged and unforgiving, with stones and rocks scattered across a dirty terrain. It reflects both the physical challenges faced by soldiers during war and symbolizes their resilience amidst adversity. Amidst this harsh backdrop, a group of Chinese male soldiers stands tall, proudly holding their weapons while waving their national flag. Their determined expressions reveal an unwavering spirit despite being on the losing side of conflict. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the violence that unfolded during the Sino-Japanese War, highlighting its impact on both nations involved - China and Japan. It encapsulates not only a historical moment but also represents broader themes such as patriotism, sacrifice, and honor. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive/Getty Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand a significant chapter in Asian history - one that shaped relations between two powerful nations for years to come.
