EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of great significance during the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-5. Titled "Honorable surrender, Port Arthur" it showcases the Japanese forces allowing General Stoesel and his defenders to surrender with dignity. The image, originally published in Le Petit Journal in Paris on January 15,1905, portrays an extraordinary scene that symbolizes honor and respect amidst conflict. In this colored portrait, we witness military personnel from both Russia and Japan standing side by side. Their contrasting uniforms reflect their respective countries as they come together in this historic moment. The concept of honorable surrender is beautifully depicted through the expressions on their faces – a mix of solemnity and acceptance. The photograph serves as a reminder that even in times of war, there can be moments where humanity prevails over hostility. It encapsulates the spirit of the early 20th century when nations were grappling for power and territory but still recognized the importance of preserving one's dignity. Located at Port Arthur in China, this significant event marked a turning point in the Russo-Japanese War. Through this print by an unknown creator preserved by Heritage Images, viewers are transported back to witness history unfold before their eyes.
