The Captured Taku Forts, 1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a photograph that captures the aftermath of the Boxer Rebellion in China. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image showcases the resilience and determination of the Allied forces as they successfully captured these formidable fortifications. The photograph provides a detailed view of the North Fort with a Japanese flag proudly flying atop its ramparts. The central square reveals signs of battle, with disabled guns and shot marks serving as reminders of the fierce fighting that took place. Despite being hit five times, one can see a north-east gun still standing strong and working perfectly. The composition also offers glimpses into other areas within the forts such as the South Battery, mens quarters, and fortified walls. The meticulous fortifications demonstrate both Chinese ingenuity in constructing these defenses and Allied prowess in breaching them. This historical print not only commemorates an important event but also serves as a testament to human resilience during times of conflict. It reminds us of our ability to overcome challenges when united towards a common goal. Displayed within private collections today, "The Captured Taku Forts, 1900" continues to captivate viewers with its powerful imagery and rich historical significance.
