Surprise attack by Russian cavalry on the road to Port Arthur, Russo-Japanese War, 1904
Surprise attack by Russian cavalry on the road to Port Arthur, Russo-Japanese War, 1904. The Russo-Japanese War arose due to the two countries conflicting territorial ambitions in East Asia. When the Russians reneged on an agreement to withdraw troops from Manchuria, the Japanese embarked on a lengthy siege of the Russian-leased city of Port Arthur in Manchuria. Port Arthur surrendered in January 1905, and a combination of incompetence on the part of Russian commanders and the decisive victory for the Japanese navy at the Battle of Tsushima forced the Russians to the negotiating table. The outcome of the war was Japan gaining effective control of Korea and much of Manchuria. An illustration from Le Petit Journal, 12th June 1904

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment during the Russo-Japanese War in 1904. The image depicts a surprise attack by Russian cavalry on the road to Port Arthur, showcasing the intensity and chaos of warfare. The conflict arose from conflicting territorial ambitions between Russia and Japan in East Asia. The war unfolded when the Russians failed to honor an agreement to withdraw troops from Manchuria, prompting the Japanese to initiate a lengthy siege of Port Arthur. In January 1905, Port Arthur surrendered, marking a significant turning point in favor of Japan. The incompetence of Russian commanders coupled with the decisive victory for the Japanese navy at the Battle of Tsushima further pushed Russia towards negotiations. Ultimately, this war resulted in Japan gaining effective control over Korea and much of Manchuria. The illustration featured here was originally published in Le Petit Journal on June 12th, 1904. Through this powerful visual representation, we witness horses charging into battle as soldiers engage in fierce combat along a street in Manchuria. This artwork not only highlights the brutality and unpredictability of warfare but also serves as a reminder of how conflicts can shape history and redefine borders.
